I was on yahoo answers this morning, and this question has been popping up. Simply, it gets a lot of attention from people across the globe who are, or against the refugees coming into their countries. The question is this, "why are white people against Muslims?" and I deeply thought whether or not to answer it. I didn't like the idea refugees coming in for a lot of reasons. Then, for some reason, I stopped typing and looked to see who posted it. To my surprise! there was no username. I starting clicking for a profile in that space where it should be, and nothing came up. I started thinking about it for awhile and a thought came to me that evil was playing tricks here. No username, and a question that would get anybody's attention and get a fight out of it- clever. I believe God uses our reasoning and thoughts to talk to us. I glorify him for showing me that today. Still, that was a creepy discovery that I've found with, no profile attached to this question. If you come across this on yahoo answers please, be aware what's going on.

On that great day when the Lord comes along and divides the sheep from the goats and tells them He is doing so based on . . . their having done things for Him such as visiting in prison, clothing when naked, feeding when hungry. . . .

Will He say "For I was a refugee and you took me in"

or will He say "For I was citizen of a nation you kept safe by locking out refugees"?

The question is this, "why are white people against Muslims?"

I guess I'm not very good with colors and tints.

Who establishes the nations and their boundaries . What was Nimrods big mistake and who treats strangers better than the USA . We wound our enemies in war, then feed and care for them . But our law gives us the right to choose who we allow in .. We even restrict what plants and animals can be brought in . We have a right to identify who comes in and why .. Do we let prison inmates come and go as they please ? Our citizens generally agree to abide by our law that requires daily adherence and effort . When Mexico starts handing out and paying what it costs us , they'll build a wall like yesterday , and the muslims, just check the mess Europe is getting in by just letting all comers in no questions asked ..

Ok, everybody stop. This, is exactly the same fight I was talking about on yahoo answers.
Alright?
Trump has already suspended refugees from coming here. That is what we voted for.

If nobody gets along. I'm going to ask to take this thread down because fighting isn't what Christians are brought up to do.

I'm glad I don't have anything to do with it.

I love people, all people truly. But I'm a police officer and have a job to do. I don't like it sometimes because I know things are hard for some people.

But I think, as I try to keep this little town safe, Trump is doing the same on a nationwide scale. There has to be a better way to vet refugees and others coming in because if we can't keep ourselves safe, we can't keep others safe.

And we don't need another Orlando and any more lone wolf terrorism. That's not fair to us law-abiding citizens. We pay for government like CIA and FBI to keep us safe with our tax dollars, and we should never be afraid to visit bars and night clubs and worry about terrorists with guns illegally gotten killing us by the dozen.

I know the travel ban has caused an uproar but how would we feel if another 40+ people were killed by someone slipping in?

The price in human lives is just too great as well as the risk. I, for one, do not accept terrorism as a way of life. Not here. Not my country. We need to be safe. I pray for all our safety, every day.

It comes down to this. A ban on Muslims in unconstitutional because of religious freedom, but a ban on undesirable aliens is not unconstitutional if we define that as those whose purpose is to inflict harm. But how accurate is the procedure to determine that, for that is where the rub is. If our ports of entry officials are doing their job correctly, then that should solve it. I still don't think the wall is necessary, if we position enough patrols along the border.

There is controversy regarding the religiosity of Islam.

Muhammad was a violent and tyrannical warlord. The aim of Islam is world domination.

Always has been.

Always will be.

It is not unconstitutional to prevent entry to those who have blatantly said death to America, and have vowed to kill us and have demonstrated that they intend to.

Walls are not evil. Those who necessitate the need for walls are.

Not all Muslims have said death to America, and have vowed to kill us and have demonstrated that they intend to. That's the same as saying all white people are racist. Are there white racists? Sure are but not all are that way. Fact is refugees are trying to escape the psychotic Muslims in their home countries. Many because they have helped Americans.

Walls don't just keep people out, they keep people in also remember that my friend

I appreciate your genteelness in your response, my friend.

Please PM me so i can discuss what i posted above in more detail.

There is a difference between genuine refugees and migrants and a stone cold invasion.

Peace.

Well and this has been said, we can let everyone in, not worry about anything and lose our freedom to martial law. Terror has to be stopped.

In Europe women have been raped by radical Islamists. This cannot be tolerated.

When a radical Islamist means to hurt innocent people, this must not be allowed. It has to be stopped cold. I'm a cop. I love people. But I'll never stand for crime and so yep I have no problem nailing a rapist or wife beater and it is the same with stopping terrorists. I haven't stopped any but I'm ready to and we've all had the training here.

Terrorism is a crime that must be prevented.

Also Mohammed took a child bride and proclaimed death to anyone who went against Islam in the Qu'ran. For our anti-terrorist training we had to read the Qu'ran.

I wish I had not read it.

He also believed that there will be more women in hell than men, mostly due to their lower intelligence and their inferiority, etc.

Yes he did. But when you see so many women in Christianity having a voice and struggling to get some wayward men to Christ, this negates that whole idea.

Women are just as smart as men. The only difference between women and men is bodies. They may be smarter than we are in fact. EmmaCat my wife here does the stock market thing and makes a bunch of money for us for our retirement.

I don't think Islam allows women to do that.

Islam is shrouded in everything that is the antithesis to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and sanity.

He was Muslim.
But wasn't he an American.
Muslim isn't a country.
This country gives freedom of religion, unless you want to change everything.
Most of the people in this country are from other places, unless you want to give the country back to Indians.
