We Americans are a kind and compassionate mostly-Christian people. History backs up that claim. However, our enemies have perfected the art of using our kindness and compassion against us.
At no time has this been demonstrated more vividly than today, when Muslim and Leftist propagandists use the horrible plight of children and women (a plight Leftists and Muslims brought about) to try and tug on our heartstrings so that we will naively admit millions more Islamists into our country, a large majority of whom perfectly fit the profile of those who have committed thousands of vicious terrorist attacks around the world for the last half century, ie young, healthy, military-age young Muslim men.
Yes, God gave you a heart, one that should be tender and sympathetic toward the oppressed.
But He also gave you a brain, and the duty to protect your own.
"But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."-- I Timothy 5:8
Our minds were given to us to rule our hearts. It is 1 huge thing that separates us from the animals and animalistic behavior.
Indeed.
