That's a novel idea, how would you plan on doing that? What kind of politically incorrect questions/procedures would you be willing to ask/take?

I don't really know but I bet the answer is in Two Corinthians.

So I see. You have been anointed to determine who wears the garment and who doesn't.

Sad.

Help them, of course. Most of the Trump supporters are not Christians--I don't care what they call themselves.

As we're doing today: Trump's extreme vetting for refugees? Already here: Column

21 steps: https://www.americanprogress.org/iss...rian-refugees/

Instead of giving them a chance, we are barring entry and exposing them to the possibility of being executed. Some of them even helped us in our war efforts. Personally, I think Jesus would give them a chance. But that's just my answer.

Why not build safe zones? I'm sure these people would rather remain in their own countries if they could live peacefully.
