    Yep.....your 4th post without saying anything. DEFLECTION. You will not defend your lies because there is no refutation of the simple truth....thus, the circles of ignorance. Can you actually post void of parroting the thoughts of others while pretending their thoughts make you smart? Your skills of articulation demonstrate your true education.

    There are many remedies for the dizziness caused by your circularity, Ralphie. Look into them.

    I see you're another crazy one who thinks Jesus was a liberal.

    “Illegal entry into the United States is a crime — as it should be. Persons who violate the law of our nation are subject to prosecution,” Sessions said at a meeting in Fort Wayne, Ind., where he spoke about President Trump’s hardline immigration stance.

    “I would cite you to the Apostle Paul and his clear and wise command in Romans 13, to obey the laws of the government because God has ordained them for the purpose of order,” Sessions said,

    Moses gives God’s law: “You shall not wrong or oppress a resident alien; for you were aliens in the land of Egypt.” Exodus 22:21

    When the alien resides with you in your land, you shall not oppress the alien. The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.”-Leviticus 19:33-34 and 24:22

    "You shall have one statute for both the resident alien and the native.”--Numbers 9:14

    "The aliens shall be to you as citizens, and shall also be allotted an inheritance."--Ezekiel 47:21-22


    You lose. God has so commanded.

    They are aliens and I noticed you conveniently avoided the one about not having laws treating natives differently than aliens.

    For us non-Christians, the "righteous" Christian insistence on using Scripture to justify one's actions is amusing. Here's an example, contradicting the Trump Admin treatment of immigrants:
    ~~~
    Deuteronomy 10:19 - You shall love the stranger, for you were once strangers in the land of Egypt.

    Leviticus 19:34 - The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

    Luke 10:27 - You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.

    Hebrews 13:1 - Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.

    Matthew 25:35- I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.

    Matt. 25:40 - Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of my brethren you did it to me.

    “The Bible is the word of God"
    "How can you be sure it's the word of God?"
    "Because the Bible tells us so"
    "Why believe the Bible?
    "The Bible is infallible"

    This bears repeating, since wannabes still misunderstand a whole friggen lot in the Bible, and Christian doctrine: You are taught to be humble, not soil yourself rebelling against secular authority. You abide, but you don't have to accept. The whole point of this is for your own good. Back in those days you would likely be executed, or other severe punishments may be cast. It's one of the biggest things I live by is to just abide and let it go. Its how I can still smile, despite the abhorrence taking place in this country. My heart, and mind aren't so burdened, and anger driven. You do know that the God putting people in charge part refers to Israel, right? Don't be fool enough to think that it means all leaders. God doesn't control free will, and he couldn't place a leader chosen by a majority of the populace, using their free will to do so.
