    Default Christian Family Values?

    Setting aside the prevention of refugees from entering the US so that can claim asylum as allowed by Law, the breaking up of families has reached a new low that any one calling themselves "christian" should be disgusted by:

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...=.2d7b4e5255a4
    "2Timothy 3 "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away"

    Not just "Christians" but fundamentalists and evangelicals.

    LOL. Funny how people on the left are trying this ploy after pronouncing Christianity dead and declaring it not the basis for public policy re: gays, abortion, or anything else. Either way a True Scotsman fallacy is still a fallacy.

    Nobody is doing that. Refugees are not being turned away from this country. Where did you get that idea?

    Protecting the Christians that are already in this country is the Christian thing to do.

    Don't do that. 66 million people voted for Hillary, people from all walks of life and all kind of religions and levels of belief. That is absurd.

    Yes just as the good Samaritan parable says to do.

    Human decency is not always "Christian"..

    Yeah, no shit Sherlock.
    It is nice though to watch the 'Family Values' types show us what real Human Slugs they REALLY are.

    You not liking the truth does not make the truth absurd at all.

    What makes you so sure these people would not rather their child remains in the US even if they cannot? Jews sent their children away from Germany without them. We are seeing the same thing now coming out of Honduras since Obama/Clinton decided to recognize a pro-business right wing coup as the legitimate government over a progressive government that had existed. First world "human decency" is as antiquated as Victorian "good manners".

    That is a possible point to consider.

    From the real world, not the fantasy you Trumpkins have created:

    https://www.theatlantic.com/video/in...border-asylum/

    https://theintercept.com/2018/06/16/...ntral-america/
    "2Timothy 3 "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away"

    Agreed. Sixty-six million people voting for Hillary is absurd.
