Illegal aliens who don't want to leech the system and have proven it shouldnt be deported.

Huh? Just forgive them for breaking our laws for years? Sure, if you want to set that precedent then be prepared to let all the con men, swindler, embezzelers, rapists, etc. go free. If you forgive one crime why not all?

Although they broke the law to get here, but if they love the United States and genuinely make amends the crime should be forgiven.

How do you prove you 'love the United States'? Make them swear on the Bible? If they've been lying for years why would they tell the truth now?

Why be cruel to those who are genuinely sorry and making contributions to the country?

Again, how does one prove they are genuinely sorry? How does someone who is here illegally, leeching off of our system contribute?

By the way, I don't recall us adopting the Bible for our laws. Why do you keep quoting the Bible in regards to illegals?

He's selectively quoting the Bible, and deliberately ignoring the many verses that say the opposite of what he's trying to say. Like don't steal, don't covet, be in submission to the authorities over you, a city without walls is a bad thing, take care of those of your own household first, God sets the boundaries of the peoples, etc., etc.
