How you treat your family also counts as how you treat Christ, and our American family is getting a bum deal from multicultural immigration policies. We can better help the people of Mexico, 51 percent of our illegal immigration, by encouraging good and fair business policies in Mexico. Same goes for the 24 percent coming from other Central and South American countries. Why is it all those rich countries can’t manage to provide for their own people? Would these preachers who preach their convoluted values agree to allow any alien who wants to come into their home, live out of their refrigerator, and take charge of their couch and remote control? Hell no! But they have no objections to hanging 6 trillion dollars of debt around the necks of American citizens, while allowing unskilled, uneducated, disease carrying immigrants to come into our house, and to steal the future of our country. I might ask the same preachers what the bible says about the treatment of thieves breaking into homes.

I have seen both Catholic and Protestant missionaries going to Mexico and South America. Why is it that the churches that have been in those countries for five hundred years have not done more to educate and feed the people? If you ever watched the tv show “Little House on the Prarie” you will recall that the little town had a building that served as a school, church and courthouse. The American pioneers were not rich but they made use of their every resource such as the building that was used as a church on Sunday, a school during the week and a courthouse when the circuit judge came to town. Why haven’t the churches in Mexico and South American done the same thing? Why not let the people of the village use the church for a school during the week? Why not hire a young person to teach all the grades of kids as the one room school houses used to do in the 18 hundreds? The children were well educated with very little equipment. I have seen American missionaries going to Mexico and South America to open schools for the poor—why can’t people use their God given ingenuity to do the same? But you will not hear this from the clergy because it would sound too critical but if a culture has a lot of problems, they must be confronted with their flaws not flattered and put on a pedestal as some of our religious leaders are doing while feeling that they are just doing the loving Christian thing. Jesus was not afraid to confront people with their sins and shortcomings but many in today’s church just want to have a schmooze-fest.
