I took the time to listen to some very wise words from Timothy Dolan on Trump’s immigration policy. I guess this is something that most us will find interesting and agree with at least some parts of. I really like his very human and decent approach. Here is my transcription of a part that I particularly like:
And for those who have previously held that Romans 13 should be understood under the precondition that you should not obey the law if it contradicts the Bible, here is another interesting quote (again in my transcription):

If they want to take a baby from the arms of its’ mother and separate the two, that’s wrong. I don’t care where you at, what time and what condition, that just goes against… You don’t have to read the Bible for that. That goes against human decency. That goes against human dignity. It goes against what is most sacred in the human person.
I don’t think we should obey a law that goes against what God intends. That you would take a baby, a child from his or her mom, I mean, that is just unjust, that’s unbiblical, that’s unamerican. There could be no Bible passage that would justify that.
