So, tell us again where it tells Christians to be cold-hearted about this issue? I've read plenty of verses that say to help the poor, orphans, widows, aliens. (forget for a moment that this is even a manufactured crisis.) Come on, what's your biblical basis for wanting to harm the kids instead? These kids are caught in a political football game unfortunately by politicians who care nothing about them. Think about that. Is it their fault their parents cared little about them or that the governments who allowed passage cared less.

You see, the politicians in a number of countries have created this mess, hoping, well, who really knows what they hope to achieve. So, the question is, why not reserve your hostilities and anger to the politicians who are responsible for this? It does you no good to attack those who are trying to make the best out of a bad situation.

Ok, we get you don't like CBN or Pat Robertson...big whoop. Does taking these kids in and helping them solve the problem? Absolutely not. Then again, what are you doing to resolve the issue? Have you expressed your anger by going to DC and demanding action? Have you camped outside your congresscritters door? Probably not. So instead you complain about what others are doing to help the kids. Real helpful, that.

Face it, it's a brilliant Democrat strategy to make the conservatives look petty and heartless. It's working too. We're put in a box.

There are no easy answers for politicians who do not want to solve the problem. You and I both know it can be solved tomorrow if the spineless in DC had the will. They won't though.

Or perhaps those who are Believers should ask: what would Jesus do in this situation?
