Is it really 'unchristian' to resist forced settlement of refugees?
Christian Action Network ^ | 11-24-2015 | Alec Rooney

Posted on 11/24/2015 11:57:56 AM PST by hemogoblin

Let us share a trend from Christian Action Network’s Facebook page, where supporters “Like” the things we do and haters bombard us with profanity and/or insults.

When we announced our recent petition drive to keep Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe from settling Syrian refugees in our home state (it’s still open; sign it here), the negative reactions all had a similar tone: that we are “unchristian” for opposing a huge, hasty and very political importation of strangers into our midst from a region known for terrorism and extremist violence.

Here are some choice examples:

You get the idea. We don’t practice what we preach. We are hypocrites.

Because Christian people strive to be self-aware and mindful of their own sins, that really hurts. On its face, it seems so true! The president of the United States himself even needles us with it, accusing us in public of being unwilling to help suffering women and children.

If I have a nicer house than the neighbors, does that mean it’s ‘unChristian’ not to ask them to move in with me...?

Why not everyone in the neighborhood, provided only that the house I worked and saved and scrimped to make for my family and myself is nicer than theirs.

They have their own house, and it’s precisely what they made of it; let them live there, envious or not.

They want to rape our women, and kill all of our men and women. They want Christians stone cold dead.

Next question ?

That is why women and children are always in the front of the "Migrant Column ".
and why women and children are in the front lines of attacking Boko Haram !
Chivilry is unknown in the barbarian world.

1) separation of church and state ?

2) Am I my Brother’s Keeper? That is the paradigm Cain created when he wanted to avoid God’s paradigm. Is it Christian to follow the paradigm of God? or the paradigm of Cain?

Doing the right thing does not mean doing it in the most expensive and least efficient manner possible. It is not less Christian to build security camps that hold everybody and protect them.

If it is a Christian act to provide protection and security to refugees, than it is a more Christian act to create camps to hold them.

Obama, June 28, 2006: Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation – at least, not just. We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, and a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers.

End of BS argument. Terry the convenient “christian”.

The leftists are the same as the islamists, I do not engage them. We are at war, leftists are on the wrong side.

I’ve always found it ironic being called unchristian by non-christians.

Well if any of these people were actually Syrian or actually Refugees then helping them may be the right thing to do. However, that is not the case.

Simple question.

If you are one of these Leftist hate propaganda pushers, how many Syrian refugees have YOU agreed sponsored?

What does the bible say about false prophets, false prophesy?

Islam claims that our bible was corruptly rewritten by Christians and Jews and that Mohammed was chosen by God to set the record straight. Mohammed then wrote a book that diametrically opposes our Judeo-Christian bible and, in fact, commands its followers to invade its neighbors and conquer by terror. Islam is on a quest to convert or kill all Jews and Christians and dominate the earth.

I am no biblical scholar, but I think the bible warns us of this.

Please correct me where I am wrong.

It is not Christian to commit suicide by bringing potential terrorists into the county.

All the progs who call us racists for demanding borders language and culture should leave all their doors and windows unlocked and post it on facebook so the whole world will know how inclusive and progressive they are.

When miscreants of all color and creed storm their domiciles intending to pillage, rape and murder they are not allowed to call 911, or defend themselves in any way whatsoever, because according to them, it would be racist to do so.

Of course none of them will put their money where their mouth is

The bible and constitution are the last straws leftists grab to advance their agenda and aside from advancing their agenda, they could care less about either one
