From the moment you got to this site all you have done is sit there waiting for opportunities to snipe at Christians. Even if you have to make up crap. You are a sad little man, Charles. I feel sorry for you. It must really be lonely to be you.
    I never said Trump personally ripped children out of mother's arms. And the rest of your post seems to consist of personal attacks or perhaps I misunderstood the Christian love in your message?

      You mean personal attacks like:

      • The left may have overplayed their hand here. By portraying this as such an urgent crisis they may find themselves forced to make some compromises (like maybe on the wall for instance) in order to get legislation passed.

        Of course I tend to believe that many of them don't want anything done so they can keep trying to exploit it. For them these kids are nothing but disposable pawns to be used in attempt to amass power.

        I'm always still in trouble again

          yeah now that Trump gave them what they asked for, the ball is back in their court. If they think this is such a crisis, they need to fix it.

            Oh wait, attack Christians. right.
            As if even more personal attacks would strengthen your case... You have no idea what I have done. Assuming I have done nothing is based on...?

                  The quote originates from before Marie Antoinette was old enough to spout such nonsense. It wasn't attributed to her until well after the first French Revolution, and no one during the first French Revolution even tried to use the quote or something similar as propaganda against her. It was allegedly in reference to famine... and yet there was no famine during the reign of her husband. Additionally, Marie Antionette's own letters do not provide evidence of a mindset that would lead her to say anything like that.

                        It says "fewer illegals", no?

                          Given how easily and readily this administration lies, I have to admit I'm dubious. And "a few" does not square with the need to open a fourth "tender age" detainment center. I'd prefer the data come from a more impartial source. I cannot claim it is wrong - I just am seriously suspicious.

                                That's what he was found guilty of in the Sanhedrin trial so the elders would have an excuse to demand crucifixion from PP.
