Leviticus 19:34 The alien living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

I had forgotten about this verse, P-Marlowe. The others are insightful, but this Levitical mandate goes all the way to birth rights.

I expect there will be serious disagreement with this interpretation, but I don't see how the literal rendering can be overcome.

You have opened a floodgate.

I must rethink my entire position. I am determined to be a biblical Christian and a follower of YHWH's words.

All the more reason to eliminate the magnet that draws people here illegally.
