And when they don't, separate them from their children and throw them in cages?


No separation, send them all together back home.

Thus the display is incorrect and sensational.


Yes, because separating families and putting children in cages to be punitive is totally legal. It's also exactly how Jesus would do it.







(/sarcasm, ...that's the point of the display, for those too dense.)


It’s how Obama did it, too. Funny how all the moral and kind religious people just noticed the caging when Trump got elected. Hypocrites.

Yes, you admire religious people who echo your politics.

Again, where was this kindhearted man of the cloth when Obama was caging kids? He was silent and you didn’t admire him then. Hypocrite both!

You think this priest was in favor of separating families when a president of a different political party was in office?

You either have a very low opinion of this man, proven religious leaders in general, or -- more likely ---

You are the hypocrite.

You are also wrong, lazy, and unable to google:

Very consistent positions, even when controversial, and anything but a hypocrite.

Hmmm, his wiki page says NOTHING about him being outspoken about immigration until NOW.

Silence during the Obama years on immigration.

Hypocrite.

No, just a giant list of books he wrote on the topic of refugees, poverty, social justice, Jesus, spirituality and the like, all espousing the same views he is speaking of in the video.

He's the exact opposite of a hypocrite, despite your furious typing otherwise.

Don't be dishonest. It's un-Christian. "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor".

So where was he when Obama was caging the children. Too busy to speak up? Not paying attention? Not caring?

No answer from you. He was silent.

“There’s a famous, media-savvy priest, James Martin. He’s the kind of man whom Martin Scorcese calls up to consult on movies like Silence. Martin appears on Stephen Colbert, mocking conservatives and roguishly giving the heavy metal “devil horns” salute. He serves as a special advisor to Pope Francis. All this, while he’s pitching himself to the rich and aggressive LGBT lobby as their champion inside the church.”

Ah, he goes on Colbert and mocks conservatives and gives the heavy metal devil horns salute. He’s not a media whore at all.

He’s a lefty, that’s why you admire him. Talk about honesty- ‘fess up.

Yes he's a lefty.

Just like Christ.

Christ was concerned with His Father’s Kingdom, which He will rule over. Any time someone assigns a modern political party designation to Christ I automatically know they are just political hacks and using religion to further their political opinions.

Jesus isn’t a democrat or republican, a conservative or a liberal.

Period.

It was only in response to others bringing it up. I am the OP and my point was that these people are acting in a way I view as consistent with the teachings of Jesus Christ as well as other passages in the Bible.

But these people aren’t acting consistently, because they did not act or speak out when Obama was caging children.

If they cared and were consistent with the teachings of Jesus and the Bible, they would have done it then, as well.
