The bigger problem from the region, when bringing in Christians, they are not on the King James version, not the Jerusalem Bible version, not the Geneva Bible, The Bishops Bible, or the Matthew Bible.... They are OLD Testament to the core. Which is the equivalence to the Quran.

I have to disagree, because the Old Testament is originally from the Jewish faith, before Jesus, therefore by definition, a Christian cannot just adhere to the Old Testament. The old Testament, is not equivalent to the Quran. To say so, is like saying Jews are equivalent to Muslims in their beliefs and BTW, the Old Testament is the first half of the Bible.

Read the Old Testament.... All forms of Christianity, are a spin off the Hebrew Faith, beginning centuries after Christs death. Were Peter, Paul and Matthew, alive before, during or after Christ?
I think of it more like this: We set the example for the rest of the world and our allies. They see we don't believe helping people caught in a war that we are partially funding and participating in is a worthy cause, and they will stop too. In the end, more people will die. People seriously against it, how exactly have the ones here effected you so negatively to cheer this?
San Bernardino, Boston, Orlando just for starters.

As an agnostic I backed off supporting Hillary when she wouldn't back down off importing hundreds of thousands of intolerant homophobes who enjoy living like it's still 800 AD.
How ironic. The country founded on freedom of religion is refusing entrance to refugees from a war tron country just because they are a different religion than the majority of us. And you can't justify it in any other way, because there is no evidence these people will be violent. Just because a tiny minority of Muslims are violent doesn't mean all of them will be. This is discrimination, pure and simple.
What part of a temporary ban until we have a more adequate vetting process to separate the good from the bad don't you liberals get?
Sorry, war torn, war schmorn. People are responsible for their leaders. People who tolerate living under Islamic theocracies and who don't care about freedom are responsible for their own plight when their irrational leaders act irrationally and war with each other. You don't get to now be a "refugee" and victimize our country where freedom was fought for and died for. Stay in your own country, fight for your own freedom, and establish a secular government that recognizes individual rights and individual freedom. We provided you with the model for a rational, correct and free society. If you choose to live in the 10th century, then you are responsible when your leaders act exactly as you would expect - irrational mystical tyrants.
The chickens came home to roost, as they simply had to, and now you want to roost in America? And at taxpayer expense? No. Stay in your country and change it to something correct - something that looks like our country. We have provided you with the template. It is up to you to use it.

I thought that's pretty much what I said, but nevermind.
Winning??? You do know that this isn't a reality show, right? It's not a lefty/righty contest. It's the deterioration of what America was built on. Our founders, the British, fled England because of religious persecution. I'll bet they're proud. Hardly.
