States Celebrating Hospitality With Nativity Scenes Want To Turn Away Syrian Refugees

WWJD?

WASHINGTON -- Around two thousand and sixteen years ago, a non-Christian Middle Eastern couple was in need of refuge for the night. There was no room at the inn, but the innkeeper dug deep into his humanity and offered the travelers, one of whom was pregnant with another Man's child, the option of bedding down in the barn. It was there that Jesus Christ was born.

The scene of the Nativity is recreated throughout the world every December. You can find it in malls, on the front lawns of churches, in dioramas and on clothing. It is an annual celebration of hospitality and its infinite, sacred possibility.

At least five states are bringing that spirit to their people by displaying Nativity scenes in the governor's mansions or state capitol buildings. While a chained-up sheep might be welcome under Georgia's rotunda, however, today's Middle Eastern refugees are not.

Georgia, Illinois, Nebraska and Texas will have Nativity scenes in their state capitols, and Oklahoma will have one at the governor's mansion. The governors of those same five states have said they do not want any Syrian refugees coming to their states in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris.

"Our nation and our state have a shared history of providing safe haven for those displaced by conflict, but the news surrounding the Paris terror attacks reminds us of the all-too-real security threats facing America," Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner (R) said last month.

None of the governors' offices returned a request for comment on whether the story of Christmas holds any lessons for how to deal with the current refugee situation.

Lovely nativity scene. Thanks!

Sounds about right with that crew of "christians".

What would happen in the US if a bunch of muslim terrorists started butchering thousands of citizens based on their religious beliefs and took over large parts of the country and proclaimed the land as their own new country?
Would American patriots go fucking crying to a foreign country for help? Would hundreds of thousands of Americans start flooding into Canada and Mexico? Or would the Americans stand and fight to the death for their homeland?
What the fuck are tens of thousands of Syrian young men (cowards) doing running away?
They are fucking deserters and cowards.
Most of them have been indoctrinated to 'hate' America. So why flee to America? Stay in your own country and fucking MAN-UP!

If they were christian terrorists, would you join them?

As for muslim terrorists....they would get NO traction here....they wouldn't live long enough.

I'm 100% in favor of stopping their invasion of my State. If Obama is determined to admit them they should all go D.C.. The same is true of wetbacks. D.C. is already screwed up; no way they can make it much worse.

Just because Jesus was from the middle east you don't have to lump him in with potential terrorists. Racist!

Yeah, and you blame it all on blacks, Mexicans, and Muslims?

 

[dilloduck]

It's quite compassionate to protect your own friends and family from possible evil. Even liberals have been known to do it.

What does a Nativity scene have to do with Syrian refugees?

If the vast majority of refugees were Christian these people would probably see things a lot differently.​

Probably because they are different. Do you watch ANY news?

 

[Compost]

If the vast majority of refugees were Christian these people would probably see things a lot differently.​

Probably. After all, Christians don't cut your head off if you refuse to convert to Christianity.

Or shoot a child in the face for daring to go to school

Gotta love how liberals try to rationalize there ant-American garbage by playing the guilt trip on white Christians. We're at war with people that want to kill us, our children and all our loved ones. I guess liberals didn't get the memo.

The hilarious thing is the first group of people ISIS would exterminate are the American Indians. I mean it's not like they have ever contributed anything to the advancement of the country.
Unless you count the Government paid for casinos and the Government paid for garbage trucks needed to haul away the 'Keepers Of The Land's' fucking garbage dumps AKA their front yards.
