California Governor: Not 'Christian' for Trump to Build Border Wall
Washington Free Beacon ^ | March 27, 2017 | Andrew Kugle

Posted on 03/27/2017 2:16:01 PM PDT by Zakeet

One Democratic governor is citing adherence to Christian values as a reason to oppose the United States building a wall on its southern border.

California Gov. Jerry Brown (D.) explained Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" his opposition to President Trump's proposed wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, telling host Chuck Todd that the project is not consistent with Christian values.

Todd asked if Brown would take every opportunity to stop construction of the wall. Brown responded that he and his state will oppose Trump's border wall in a "strategic" way, not wasting time on frivolous lawsuits. ...

"No, we're going to fight, and we're going to fight very hard," Brown continued. "But we're not going to bring stupid lawsuits or be running to the courthouse every day. We're going to be careful. We'll be strategic."

It is not Christian for a country to protect its borders!

It is Christian to ignore the law ... to kill unborn babies ... to allow homosexuals to marry ... to let homosexuals adopt children ... to grant special privileges to transsexual drag queens ... to persecute Christians while granting special religious rights to Muzzies and other cults ... to teach sexual perversion in public schools ...

What would he know about Christianity? I’ll bet he’s never cracked a bible open or darkened a church doorway.

Not Christian?

That’s it?

That’s the new meme?

Play on Christian empathy to convince us to commit suicide?

My beloved God, I pray there is more of us than there are of them.

From the same party that declares that we are not a Christian nation.

If the GOP were to base any law on it's Christian foundation, Brown would be complaining. It's what they do.

So does this mean he supports it? The left is always telling us the US is not a Christian nation, after all.

Jerry Brown has no say, because border control is a federal responsibility and that supercedes state rights.

Moonbeam is repeating the crap that’s preached every Sunday.

Moonbeam is Catholic and this crap is preached throughout the Church. I know this for a fact because I’ve heard it for myself too.

I’ve stopped attending. The bishop here in San Diego is a real peach. He’s a raving Left-wing activist. Several “sanctuary” houses, outlets, organizations, schools, shelters, routes, etc.

It’s almost a SIN to oppose their anti-American activities and you’re UNChirstian if you oppose.

Well, I know you can guess or imagine the precise three words I said to the Bishop IN PERSON!

Funny how liberals hate Christianity, but use it when convenient to try and guilt-trip Christians.

Is it "Christian" to sneak into a country, steal someone's identity, work under the table, take taxpayer-funded benefits to which you're not entitled, and live a lie every day of your life? Because that's what illegals do. That's the least of what they do. I'm not even talking about the rapes, murders, drunk driving, drugs, child molestation, etc. Brown would never DARE say a word to insult his precious illegals. He'd never tell them they're "bad Christians" for doing all these things. But any Christian who makes the slightest move to protect himself and his family from the invasion is a "bad Christian."

Brown and people like him are just trying to guilt-trip Christians into accepting open borders. Christians, do not fall for this!

You would be wrong.

Moonbeam was raised Catholic, and Catholic schooled.

JESUIT, of course.

It’s not Christian to murder the unborn but that hasn’t stopped Moonbeam and his ilk before.

There’s a great video out there with Rev. Jeffress clearly explaining how securing a nation’s borders is Biblical.

Is he a Christian? I didn’t know this.

So what does he think about San Fran?
