Blessed Are the Courageous - Christianity Today Magazine

I don't often dispute a conclusion by the editors of Christianity Today. But I must do it this time.

The linked article is basically a plump for amnesty for 12 million illegal aliens, and paints a distorted picture of them. It gives us one anecdote suggesting that all "undocumented workers" are hard workers just trying to make a living. It ignores the spectacle of half a million of these aliens swarming the streets of Los Angeles and declaring war against the United States, with the clear military objective of repossession of the American Southwest by and for the United Mexican States--or rather for a revived Aztec Empire.

Christianity Today wants us to remember whom we're talking about. To which I agree--let's remember. Let's remember that a large portion of these twelve million flouters of our laws do not deserve our sympathy, and indeed deserve our greatest caution.
