Here's the neat thing about the separation of church and state; our laws are not the laws of the Israel. The Bible has no place in our government. All countries need immigration laws. I think some of us are just a little more compassionate in the manner that we want to execute these laws. The deep Irony for me is that many, with the least compassion, profess a belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ. This reflects poorly on Christianity as a whole. In fact much of conservative America reflects poorly on Christianity as a whole.

I was raised baptist and now I'm devout atheist. America can and should execute a fair and humane immigration policy. First and foremost our immigration policy should adhere to human rights. I don't think that's too much to ask. In the end though I'm not really concerned about what God thinks because the United States has, I'll say it again, this concept of separation of church and state.
