So when you state that "Christian principles work" you are suggesting that the overriding be-all and end-all of Christian principles is blind faith and loyalty to the present government and all its laws and lawmakers? Wasn't Christianity itself illegal in the Roman Empire for several centuries? According to your belief, wasn't practicing Christianity therefore unchristian.
Is your view on illegal imigration based solely upon the fact that it is technically illegal according to our current laws or do you have an independent Christian basis for opposing illegal immigration? If the laws were to suddenly change so as to decriminalize illegal immigration, would it be your Christian duty to change your personal opinion?
It seems to me that if we were a true Christian nation with Christain leadership, that the obviously Christian thing to do would be to welcome unfortunate citizens from around the world to our country. If Jesus were in charge, would He really turn down these people at the borders and/or have them arrested?

You guys need to keep your posts, within this thread, on topic and take your discussion to PM's, IM's or whatever you want to do. This includes everyone, not just the people quoted here!
