Avoiding discussions that mix religion with politics is usually wise, but occasionally, a cause comes along that so blatantly contradicts the basics of the faith to which those behind it claim to adhere that it deserves to be called out.
Today is Christmas Eve – the day on which millions of Americans will solemnly celebrate the birth of a child to an impoverished and unmarried couple on the run from political oppression.
It’s a story that you’d think would inspire understanding and support among all Christians for the millions of modern day refugees who find themselves in similar circumstances.
Unfortunately, that’s not the case for many. Rather, a loud political movement that claims to be rooted in Christianity nonetheless supports President-elect Trump’s plan to round up millions of good people in the coming months for what promises to be a brutal forced mass deportation.
