Think about this conversation that you probably had more than once in your life.

- "Jesus wants to have a relationship with you."

- "I understand, but I don't want a relationship with jesus."

- "Then you'll burn in hell"

- "He's going to send me to hell because I don't want a relationship with him?"

- "No. YOU send yourself for not wanting a relationship with him".

Let's put that in our everyday reality terms:

- "Sarah wants to have a relationship with you".

- "I understand, but I don't want a relationship with Sarah. I like being single"

- "Then you'll be tortured for all your life"

- "Is Sarah going to torture me for all my life because I don't want a relationship with him?"

- "No. YOU are making her torture you, for not wanting a relationship with her".

I know. Stupid, right?

But doesn't end there. It has other more serious repercussions.

I was watching former ICE's chief Tom Homan and he was saying that the parents are the ones separating their own children from their own arms the moment they come illegally to the US (which is not true, since you can apply for asylum at a port of entry OR from within the US).

I could go on and on with how much this piece of shit tap danced around the stuff he was saying.

He would say that ICE agents always could exercise discretion (but never exercised it), he said that it was a misdemeanour, just like "public intoxication", yet I haven't heard about a person being separated from their families for "public intoxication".

When pressed about these practices being humane, he said "they are the law". Not only dodging the question, but begging another: "Wasn't slavery legal as well? So, it was OK to enforce it, rather than "exercise discretion"?

In other words, these people are ready to contradict themselves, so they can justify their evil.

But, once again, I digress. Back to my point

This is the damage that christianity has brought to yet another area of the public office.
In this CNN interview where former ICE chief and current piece of shit subhuman brings that argument repeatedly to the table, causing him to start a pathetic tap dance around every single moral contradiction he falls into.
He thinks that parents put themselves in such horrifying position

Tommy, one doesn't chose to put oneself in this position! One is not given a choice: Get raped or murdered by a gang in their countries or go to a place where they could have a life! (BTW, have you asked yourself WHY is it that these countries are having these problems? Homework. What? You want a hint? It envolves the USA, the CIA and the use of natural resources tax free. Go!)

And Tom Homan, thinks this is a choice. Of course he does. He thinks because he sleeps in his cozy bed, everybody had the same opportunities. Plus Homan... doesn't sound too native american to me. So at least a big chunk of his evil contaminated gene pool comes from "another part of the world".

People like him remind me to the Titanic catastrophe.

There were reports that a lot of the rich people occupying some nearly empty life boats, would kick others who tried to get in, to survive.

This is the same thing. They came here, they made a life, occupied public office just to kick in the face, the "poors" from the coach cabin.

The "Full Bus" Syndrome. Thomas would be kicking everybody in the face and enforcing it, simply because "these are orders from above".

And I clearly see that it's rooted in christianity's idea that "you send yourself to harm".
We don't. Sometimes our well being isn't consistent with your poorly thought immigration laws, just like sometimes our critical thinking isn't consistent with your religious dogma.
