...and they dare to call themselves Christians...
From the "Family Research Council" survey on Immigration...




My view of the requirements of Christian discipleship accords best with the following statement about illegal immigrants:

A. Illegal immigrants enter the United States as strangers searching for a better life for themselves and their families and they should be welcomed, not punished or sent home.
10%

B. Illegal immigrants should be treated humanely, but they are breaking properly enacted laws and they should be detected, arrested, and returned to their country of origin.
90%

...suppose any of them have ever read the New Testament?

hereby renamed the "Facist Research Council"

2. The problem with this is : If they are allowed to stay low paying jobs
go to the illegals and more citizens are forced onto well-fare. It really is a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. The two powerful influences at play are the voting poor and the employers who want lots of cheap, but non voting labor. At this point the bystander sympathy is favoring the illegals, but I predict this will change. The house vote "FELON" with no amnesty vote" reflects my point. I live in AZ and the mood here among voters is enforce the existing law. The illegals taking citizens jobs is effectively like outsourcing.
