Second migrant caravan storms into Mexico:

I don't really think that anyone "agrees" with the sentiment of killing children. However, in historical context, Psalms 137 was written during the time of the children of Israel being enslaved by the Babylonians. That Psalm may very well be merely a sentiment that raising a child to become a slave was not desired. There were also historical accounts of conquerors killing infants and children to try to prevent their "slaves" from advancing their races.

However, things haven't really improved over the centuries. How many have been murdered by conquerors or dictators? Even as late as prior to the invasion of Iraq, there were numerous incidents of Saddam's goons (and his sons) murdering people with whom they didn't agree. I'm not sure that one could call all the murderers as believers as many were or are likely secular in nature.

Weren't there instructions about killing disobedient kids in the Bible?

Israel has a wall(that we helped pay for), what happens to those(even children) who try to get in their wall?

There are those in this country who kill a whole class of humans. They've killed how many millions? I've lost count. It just gets done before the victims get a chance to breathe on their own.

It's not a caravan, it's an INVASION. Call it like it is. A mass of people wanting to breech our borders while carrying a flag of a foreign state is nothing short of an invasion and should be treated as such. The best way to stop this is for America to restrict all cash wire transfers from America to Mexico (26.1 BILLION annually). Mexico would stop this nonsense at their own southern borders to keep their cash flow from America.

The online book I posted about a possible second civil war showed how immigration could lead to invasion. As for the money issue it seems to be pretty clear for some time now that illegal immigration could be controlled in several ways, also pretty clear that some from both sides don't want it to be.

If you are referring to abortion, which I "think" you are, it is over 60 million aborted babies since Roe v Wade was decided. However, the numbers are not necessarily accurate. The numbers of abortions are reported to the Center for Disease Control and the Guttmacher Institute. The CDC gets its numbers from the states, but there are a few states, including California, that don't report their numbers to the CDC, thus CDC numbers are under reported. The Guttmacher Institute gets their number reported to them from the actual abortion providers, whether it be individual doctors or other entities, clinics, or organizations that are involved with the actual aborting. However, I suspect that even their numbers are under reported.

So, are you applying that broad brush to ALL Christians?

Deuteronomy 21: 18-21 is all that comes to mind to me right now, and it applies to the parents taking a rebellious son before the leaders of the city, not killing him themselves.

Did I miss the part where you spoke up?

Interesting comments, but what about the "caravan" headed this way?
