Some of the things that have been said by religious leaders seem to collude with a system that marginalises the poor, a system which builds walls instead of bridges, a system which says people on the margins of society should be excluded, a system which says were not welcoming people any more into our country.
Marginalizes the poor? - Maintains property rights.
Builds walls instead of bridges? - Maintains the rule of law and protects its citizens.
Not welcoming more people into our country is completely acceptable. A country gets to decide who enters and who does not, or it does not survive.
Part of Christian doctrine is self defense and the responsibility of the government to protect its people.
Why is it that every time I hear the one-worlders pass judgement on conservative Christians I think of the Tower of Babel? God was NOT happy with the one world system. He understands that we do better as humans in small groups who speak our own language and build our own communities....with walls if necessary.
