    I’m not religious but I looked up these passages to show how hypocritical they are:

    Matthew 25:35 - “For I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”

    Romans 12:13 - “Share with God’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.”

    Deuteronomy 10:18-19 - “Treat foreigners and sojourners with empathy and understanding, as they are vulnerable and in need.”

      people don’t get their morality from religious texts, they use religious texts to justify and enforce their morality.

    So, religious cunts.

    People who believe in the actual ideals of America are not split on this.

    America is a nation of immigrants.

      The ideal murica you imagine is not the one that exists, and never has been.

        It has a long history as an ideal that has always existed in the hearts of many. However the theocratic, white supremacist, capitalistic, and broadly phobic side of America is an inescapable fact that we have never been able to dispense with, and quite likely it is our doom.

    We are also split on using the military against Trumps enemies. There are a lot of people in this country who have lost their way.

      Definitely. And after that, I’m sure Jesus would have picked up hammer and nails to finish that wall to keep all those pesky immigrants out.

    Let’s make a poll about support for the slitting of puppy throats and see where we end up. Would hate to step on somebody else’s political opinion on the subject.
