Oh yes, 573 of them will completely change our religion.

Oh wait...no it wont. In fact given the resulting cultural pressures its far more likely to change them. Imagine that.

so what number would make you happy?

Christians are 7% in Syria and seems most of the Christian refugees went to nearby Lebanon where there are existing large Christian communities

Also wanted to add that 2,647 total Syrian refugees out of the 4.5 million that fled have been admitted to the US (as of 01/20/2016). Good read:

573 Muslims, 2 Christians: Syrian Refugees Admitted to US Since Paris Terror Attacks
Obama's still scratching his head, trying to figure out how those 2 darn Christians made it through!

Looks like Kobani and guess who reduced it rubble? Besides, why is it our responsibility? They are destroying each other and we have to take them in? They are all military age males. We should form the Free Syrian Army and draft them in. They serve 3 years then they qualify for refugee. This is something only Trump could say.

There's no doubt Obama wants to fundamentally change America and that's been his stated goal. He first wants to help the Muslim male ISIS team get a foothold in America and then go from there to, he hopes, taking out Christians in the USA.

1. America has never been a Christian nation, so i dount Barack Obama said "no longer".

2. Muslims outnumber Christians, 11 to 1 in Syria and there is a poverty and technology gap as well. So obviously more Muslims would be applying to come here, and less Christians proportionally have to ability to apply.

If you dont like the result,there is nothing wrong with that, but the blatant misinformation doesnt help anyone.

The solution here is for you to sponsor one of those Syrian Christians who wants to come here.

Obviously if they are going to send them back, then we need to setup safezones. Before that, they can stay in refugee camps.

Okay I agree with you there, we should help them set up a safe zone but "in their own country". The males aged between 25-45 are going to have to fight for their own country. We simply cannot do it for them. We've been involved in enough wars.

Yes, I still believe we are a Christian nation. But the PC crowd and the bleeding liberals are trying to take that away from us. Think about the Declaration of Independence it was founded on the principles of believing in God. Look at the pledge of allegiance "one nation, under God", look on the dollar bill "in God we trust".....so we were founded on these strong beliefs but now liberals and the PC people of America are trying to take that all away.

I guess we'll either stand firm in our beliefs or not as a country.

What else should we learn from those nations?

How about staying out of wars and minding our own business like Denmark and Switzerland does? Should we learn that lesson too?

You're scared.
