Will Christians Speak out Against Jeff Sessions misusing the bible to justify cruelty

Especially using the exact same scripture used throughout history to justify slavery. Nice touch Sessions.

 

I will say that I think the so-called “Evangelists” or the “Zionists” are not a majority of Christians and really even in those circles it’s just the leadership at the very top that has sold out to becoming poltical operatives.

Still, the propaganda they spew from lose leaders like Dobson, Pat Roberson, etc. does have a major impact that creates tribalism at the very least with religions such as Baptists, and “non-denomination” Baptists who do make up a good chunk of Christians. Especially in the south.

Followers in these churches and circles likely will be the last to speak out, but they won’t like this policy even if they are privately bothered by it because they are all about family and especially children. That’s why excuses and lies are being propagated by Trump and co. They know this electorate needs something to fight against their nature of thinking this is cruel and morally wrong. If they have an excuse to blame Obama and Dems for anything ... they’ll take it and be dead silent about this, or worse... Blame Obama.

 

He used the exact passage in an identical way as the Nazis did....coincidence?

Nope - **** TRUMP !

Yeah they did, they decided that when they chose to break the law. I blame criminals when their crimes break up their families, not the law that they chose to break. I know that's an advanced concept for liberals to understand, but I'll help you out the best I can with a Trump reference. Imagine if you actually could prove that he broke the law....would you want him thrown in jail, separated from his family? I'm guessing you would. Where's your compassion in that example? How dare you want to break up his family!!!

What it all comes back to is that disregarding the law has consequences and if you are willing to risk putting your family through that, you are kind of a terrible person.

 

When you enter a country illegally "seeking asylum" you are still breaking the law, you are just hoping that people will ignore your crimes due to extenuating circumstances. So, yeah, all of them actually broke the law.

Secondly, when parents are thrown in jail for their crimes, they are ALWAYS separated from their parents...and it's neither cruel or draconian.

Thirdly, I'm not blaming the children for the awful decisions of their parents, but unfortunately they are not immune from the consequences of their parents selfish and foolish actions.

 

Right wing Christians don't care if Sessions pisses on the bible so long as he jails some blacks and deports brown people

 

Fire and Fury reads like a Goldstein Bears children's book in comparison to the way these self proclaimed admirers of fascism think.
The United Methodist Church of is urging Sessions to reverse his stance. Sessions claims to be methodist.

You just don't mess with innocent kids to try to extort. It's the lowest of lows. Very Pinochet. It's no longer political. It's a humanitarian crisis.
Thankfully the courts and the press stand intact.
random thought: Can you Believe it? Maduro thinks he's a catholic. He Threw a tantrum because the Pope shun him. Pope Francis is a rockstar.

 

I haven’t checked his posts in ignore yet, but gonna go on a limb here and assume Booby is going all in on supporting child abuse based on the responses I see here.

But way to own the libs!! Go Trump! Abuse those children. I get to own the libs on a Rockets basketball forum! So cool!!!

 

Spot on. Bobthemediocre is taking the path that puts all blame on the parents for not leaving their children behind in the places they’re trying to escape from. The government is doing the right thing, tearing toddlers away from their parents to live in a closed Walmart where the employees are forbidden to hold and console them...according to predictablebob.

 

I think it's wrong to use a religious text to justify any public policy. Answering Jeff Sessions with more bible quotes is as tone deaf and pointless as quoting Hadith in order to godsplain how Islam is really about peace after Muslim terrorists kill a bunch of innocent people in Europe.

Jeff Session's relationship with a god that endorses slavery is his personal business and a protected right, but not everyone follows his religion and no one's holy book is the source of US law.

 

Enter Michael Avenatti.
It's over.

 

I found Sessions’ comments to be absolutely disgusting. Cringe worthy.

...also disgusting is how this thread has allowed the Christian haters to come out in full force. SamFisher is their frustrated leader.

 

Wondering if this subject came up in their church service this past Sunday, for those who went to one. There was a brief mention and condemnation in the sermon at my church, which is an Eco Presbyterian.

 

MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian interviews Pastor Carl Lentz, lead pastor of Hillsong NYC Church. Pastor Lentz called Sessions use of Romans 13 a “misapplication of scripture”. Lentz says the Trump administration’s policy separating migrant children from their families is “literally ripping families apart”.
