No one has a problem with people legaly entering the country, and paying there taxes. Its the folks from places like Mexico, who run up the cost of health care, who take much needed time in our childrens class rooms, cause they cant speak english that is the problem. NTM the ever increasing crime rates we have from illegals.
Grace I think JZ has a good point.

Whenever I listen to Christian talk radio it's hard to distinguish it from right-wing wacko shows like Rush or O'Reilly.

I agree there have to be immigration laws and they need to be enforced, but these Christians show such bitterness and resentment against illegal immigrants. Not all of them are criminals or gang members, they are mostly hard working people trying to feed their families.

Aren't we all God's children?

And how can Christians oppose universal health care? I hear such nonsense about why it's a bad idea, but surely Christians want all their fellow citizens to have access to health care?

Same with the death penalty. Shouldn't Christians believe that only God gives life and only God should take it away?
