Like I said, I don't like church but I'm glad I'm not in your shoes on judgement day if there is one.
Christ would not be going for this BS. He followed Gods law not Mans and he got nailed to a cross for it. He was a thorn in the side of political and particularly church leadership. That got him a sword in the side. If he listened to these assholes...…..he would not of been from God. He pretty much got persecuted and executed for breaking a so called "nation of laws".

Basically it comes down to this: It makes economic sense to have lots of kids if you are poor. As people have become more prosperous, the population growth rate has been trending steadily downward.
Population recently has slowed as the world has developed more than before 1950. Increase the rate of development and less population

So, which of God's laws, specifically, is the Trump Admin. breaking?
Allow me to remind you that Jesus also taught that his followers are to render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's. This principle applies here!. Show me, specifically, how rendering to the State (on this immigration issue) and rendering unto God are in conflict.
Also, have you ever read Romans 13 or 1 Peter 2?
And are you familiar with the spiritual law of Reaping and Sowing?

You forgot this "little" caveat -- the assumption is that IF the invaders at our border become more prosperous, then population will decrease.
And how has that been working out for China, Humpty? Shirely, there must have been a large decrease in peasanthood since the great economic and manufacturing boom in China. But while more Chinese are thriving, the population keeps growing!

But aren't you tickled pink that Burnsy isn't supporting a side -- except the Dems and RINO's who are as ignorant of the bible as the church leaders who chimed in to agree with the Dems?

Then where are these massive amounts of familes with children being RIPPED from them...coming from? Illegal immigration can't be at a historic low yet child ripping at a historic high.

You are mangling what I said.
Your stats on population is OVERALL. I showed you population increases or decreases depending upon various factors. Apply these factors proactively, and there is a marked decrease in population. You aer ignorant about China. China's worrying decline in birth rate: China Daily columnist
https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/ea...aily-columnist
We can do these things bunky
1-developmenet
Meaning Economic aid
2-I showed you that recently as the world has increased in development overall population has slowed as compared the world before 1950.
Increase the rate of development and less population results.
Also,
4-I mentioned birth control
5-I mentioned education and
6-I said feed the poor.
Basically it comes down to this: It makes economic sense to have lots of kids if you are poor. As people have become more prosperous, the population growth rate has been trending steadily downward.

The numbers of decreasing immigration are are from US border and Customs Protection.
Look on the left bottom of the chart.
I did note that "Immigration arrests at southwest border creep up but still at historic low" in the USA Today link.The chart only goes up to 2017.
https://www.npr.org/2018/06/19/62106...-at-the-border
Updated at 4:40 a.m. ET Wednesday
The number of separated children...
Since early May, 2,342 children have been separated from their parents after crossing the Southern U.S. border, according to the Department of Homeland Security
It is even more despicable that Trump blew up so many families when the immigration numbers have dropped 5 x since 2000.

Trump constantly screeches and rants about evil immigrants , all murderers, rapists, and members of gangs. Despicable bullshit about we are being infested.
He makes me sick to my stomach.
All of it is designed pump up his base, the Trumpeteer cult..
FYI.....
https://www.sentencingproject.org/pu...tive%20Summary
A rigorous body of research supports the following conclusions about the recent impact of immigrants in the United States:
Immigrants commit crimes at lower rates than native-born citizens.
Higher levels of immigration in recent decades may have contributed to the historic drop in crime rates.
Police chiefs believe that intensifying immigration law enforcement undermines public safety.
Immigrants are under-represented in U.S. prisons.

Over that time, Lott found, immigrants who were “deportable” made up a disproportionate share of the people who were convicted of crimes and incarcerated, relative to their share of the Arizona population as a whole — suggesting that they might, in fact, commit crimes at higher rates than American citizens. And young deportable immigrants were the most overrepresented in Arizona’s prisons: Deportable immigrants “between 15 and 35 make up 2.27% of the total population and 7.94% of convicts,” Lott wrote.
Lott’s core thesis — that unauthorized immigrants are in fact more likely to commit crimes than other groups — is itself a little shaky. There are some questions about the reliability of the Arizona data Lott used. (A small but nonzero number of prisoners show up in the data as US-born but not US citizens, for example, which is all but impossible.)
There are much bigger questions about whether Lott is interpreting that data accurately. He says his data shows high incarceration among “illegal immigrants,” but the actual term in the records is “deportable” — a category that includes both unauthorized immigrants and legal immigrants who’ve lost their legal status, often because they’ve been convicted of certain crimes.
