ICE Raids Are The Christian Thing To Do

Funny, but cafeteria Catholic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi doesn’t invoke her Christian conscience when she supports her caucus’ abortion-until-birth infanticide policy, the ultimate separation of mother from child. There is no worse brutality than what an unborn child feels at the hands of a surgeon’s scalpel. A detention center on the border or the deportation of those who have had their due process and have a deportation order lawfully issued by a judge doesn’t even come close.

Yet here is Speaker Pelosi daring to ask the faith and evangelical communities to put pressure on President Trump to do the Christian thing and call off the enforcement of the laws and court rulings of the United States of the United States. As the Daily Mail reported after the initial announcement of the raids, delayed by two weeks:

‘It is my hope that before Sunday, leaders of the faith-based community and other organizations that respect the dignity and worth of people will call upon the President to stop this brutal action which will tear families apart and inject terror into our communities,’ the California Democrat said in a statement on Saturday.
Pelosi did not respect faith-based communities and other organizations, such as her Catholic Church, when it came to Obamacare’s attempt to force them and the institutions they administer to provide insurance that pays for abortion and contraceptive services and products. When it comes to Catholics and pro-life people acting on their religious conscience she fights them quicker than you can say “Hobby Lobby”. As LifeSiteNews reported during a recent abortion-funding battle:
Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi blasted Catholics for fighting for the right not to perform or fund abortions, describing their abhorrence for supporting abortions as “this conscience thing,” in remarks to the Washington Post.

Last month, during a debate in the House over a bill to stop abortion funding in the health care bill and to strengthen conscience rights on abortion, Pelosi had described the bill as “savage,” claiming that it would allow doctors to let women “die on the floor” because they could refuse to perform an abortion.

In her remarks to the Post, Pelosi, who says she is Catholic, defended her statements against the Protect Life Act. While some “may not like the language,’’ she said, “the truth is what I said.”

“They would” let women die on the floor, she said. “They would! Again, whatever their intention is, this is the effect.’’

“I’m a devout Catholic and I honor my faith and love it ... but they have this conscience thing [about abortion],” added Pelosi.

Apparently this “conscience thing” may be invoked in the name of open borders, sanctuary cities and states coddling murderers of American citizens, and enforcing lawful deportation orders, but not when you are someone who believes life begins at conception and ends at natural death and not at the point of an abortionist’s scalpel.

Heaven, as some have suggested, is a place with high walls and extreme vetting. And, we are told, once you have been judged, you are cast out, uh, deported. There is a big gate, which could be called a “port of entry”, but you do not get to climb over it or sneak around it.

As evangelical leader Pastor Robert Jeffress, pastor of First Baptist Dallas, and an evangelical advise to President Trump notes, the Bible does not seem to indicate God is for open borders:
