Perhaps, but that poster did not say he/she was a Christian. YOU DID.
Read his post, he must know a lot about being a christian for some one who might or might not be a christian.

A church, as a tax-exempt organization under Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) § 501(c)(3), is absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating or intervening in any political campaign in support or opposition to any candidate for elective public office. See Treasury Regulation §1.501(c)(3)---1(c)(3)(iii).

This prohibition applies to all national (federal), state, or local elective public office campaigns.

See IRS Revenue Ruling 2007-41 (provides concise summary of law, factors, and 21 situational factual examples covering a wide range of issues within this topic).

Note: A church pastor or minister may mention a candidate or a near future election but may not speak in favor of (or encourage the congregation to vote for or against) a particular candidate.
I am well aware of the laws, but I repeat.

"Ministers are forbidden to endorse candidates or preach politics in the pulpit."

What planet are you living on, Uranus?

Dear Guests:

In my view the OP's post wherever it originated has merit. I say this because this issue of immigration has one very important aspect to it.

The manner of how who when and why we allow immigrants to enter determines this nation's future.

Immigration is a two way street in that it should be for the benefit of both the host country and those that desire guest status hoping to become citizens.

We have to be able to manage who comes to this nation. Its a matter of continuing our standard and way of life and our very survival.

Personal Best Regards:

Problem with your comment is that it was YOU that brought or changed the subject to Christianity. There was no mention of it in his/her post. If you want to continue to do a Michael Jackson backward moonwalk, that is up to you. But, your credibility continues to decline the more you try to make excuses for your flawed accusation. But, that is your choice if you wish to waste your time defending your mistake.

We have laws, period. Emotions, charity and empathy has nothing to do with the fact that we have a government that refuses to enforce certain laws, according to their radical ideology. If they refuse to do their job, then they need to be fired by the people. We should start at the highest responsible individual and work our way to the bottom until we get to the level of someone that wishes to uphold the law.

Who knows? But, we already know that Clinton won't. She is a criminal and blatantly breaks the law.
