Good on them.

Perhaps atheists and agnostics could do likewise!

Yeah, there are plenty of good Christians. You look into people who risked/lost their lives opposing Hitler and saving their Jewish friends/neighbours, and usually their religion, often Catholicism, was a huge motivator. Human society is complicated, if there were simple answers, we would all live in peace and harmony now. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

Where were those priests and nuns during the Obama administration? Thereโ€™s hardly any difference in immigration policies under Trump. The only difference is that the Big T has a bigger mouth.

On a related subject, Obama ran the first time in opposition to gay marriage. Where were all the hate mongers and demonizers with their yowling and howling back then?

That is a good point. I didn't really pay any attention to US politics until Trump took the reins. As you say, just the loudest voice.

@Allamanda There might be differences in the measures taken but in sheer numbers the Obama administration deported far more immigrants.

@Allamanda I think it is because Trump goes on about things in a way designed to provoke negative reactions. The press has some people whipped up into a frenzy of disgust and hatred toward Trump but those tactics are bound to backfire.
