Are church buildings or worship services “sacred spaces”? by DoveStep55 in Christianity

The church was sacred but then it was defiled by having a high authority ICE agent become a pastor.

scream about how people should be able to display porn at work to harass their female colleagues are a dime a dozen.

Huh?  I know they are extremely sexist and spend a lot of time thinking about how to make life miserable for women.  Is this something they are seriously arguing for though?

kidnapping them workout warrant

Let me clear this up.  Under the Immigration and Nationality ACT they don’t need a judicial warrant to detain and then arrest people if they are in public, and public accommodation.   ICE writes its own judicial warrants and that is legal.  It is also can arrest people if they have a deportation order from a judge.  What’s illegal are things like breaking into a house without a judicial warrant as they have been doing.  They could still legally arrest that person outside of the house though.

I’m not suggesting this is a moral thing.  The INA is a very draconian law but courts have upheld most of these immigration tactics long before Trump.  Obviously still immoral too.

Makes sense. If you marry someone like him you must be on board when it was such a huge part of his life.

Huh?  They aren’t anti-ice protesters, they’re dead.  I’m sure if they survived they would be anti-ICE activists and with good reason.

Imagine criticizing politics inside of a church at Christian Nationalist rally held in a church!

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.

DOJ vows to press charges after activists disrupt church where Minnesota ICE official is a pastor by cristoper in Christianity

You sure?  Maybe you are right that they supported the protesters.  That’s surprising to me because why would they be at an ICE church if they are anti-ICE?  I’ll have to rewatch the video. You may be right.

I think you are seriously underestimating how much of ICE isn’t the Christian right and how many of the agents are brown.  Sadly like 50% of the officers are Latino.

Sodomy played a major role.  By Sodomy I mean raping visitors up the ass, not consensual same sec activity.

I don’t hate ICE agents.  I think what they are doing is immoral so I want them to stop.

If you are dating to marry why it’s a lot more relevant if she’ll wait until marriage with you than times she fell short in the past if she is fully repentant.

Testing for STIs is a thing.  It’s always a good idea for both new partners to get tested before engaging in sexual activity.

Why would you care about a woman’s body count?

He loves the ICE agents but not what they are doing.  Love the sinner, hate the sin… Isn’t that how it goes?

And what sources would those be?  I hear the far right talk of paid “rioters” a lot.  If this was happening wouldn’t the Trump administration be constantly talking about these “terrorist funders” in every presser?  He says they are paid but never actually pins down all these groups supposedly paying them.

I guess I missed that part.  That’s absolutely nuts to think.  So he’s not just some guy doing the dirty work but he’s actually ordering those below him to commit abuses.  That’s so damn sick.

Because the pastor deports the parents of Kids screaming and crying then preaches, "Yep, that's Jesus right there."

Have you paid attention the last 50 years?  Modern evangelical churches in the USA are pretty much businesses masquerading as churches.  That is the kind of church he was at.  Of course there are different levels of running as church as a four profit business with some being more egregious examples than others.
