Yet people like you want to cut back, or cut out entirely, foreign aid. We want to say "we can help them more there", but that's just justification to keep "them" out. We are all people. Do you consider yourself Christian? I know people who would consider themselves devout, evangelicals...and they want to keep certain people out. When I mention the parts of the Bible where man is made in His image, the parts where we are to love others as we love ourselves, where we are to take care of others, even to the point of giving all we have, I hear crickets.
I'm sick and tired of the people who try to claim this is a Christian nation, people who say we need more "good Christians" in government, people who feel the need to complain about God being taken out of our schools talking the game but acting like it's not government's job to do anything other than leave us alone and help those who need the least amount of help. People post articles and express outrage about crosses being taken down, but want to act exactly like the people who put Christ on that cross.
People like you don't even want to help the poor and needy here, why should I expect to help the poor and needy any where else? I can see why Trump appeals to the people he appeals to, Trump is all about Trump. His supporters are all about themselves. "What's in it for me?". Sorry, but that is wrong and decidedly un-Christian.
I'm not the one who's naive. I see exactly what's going on. You, and others like you, are the one's who are naive. You think you have all the answers. The most money and most power can solve the world's problems. Completely ignoring that we are causing a lot of the world's problems with that attitude. I've said consistently, the US is not my main focus and not where my ultimate loyalty lies. If the choice is between doing things the American way or the Christian way, I'll choose the Christian way every single time. And anymore, those two ways are completely different paths.
