What would Jesus say elsewhere?
I read Steve and Cokie Roberts’ well-intentioned article with great interest (“What would Jesus say”, The Macomb Daily, July 28, 2014). May I ask, since you defend the thoughts of Jesus Christ as exemplified, my question: What do you think Jesus would say about the behavior of the people in the countries where all these illegal immigrants are coming from? Are there no Jesus Christ believers in those nations to take care of these children?
What would Jesus say about the behavior of other nations of the world that are not followers of Jesus Christ, or even worse, if they are followers of Jesus Christ and then push their children toward us the United States? May I remind you also that Jesus Christ is the most famous Jew in the world.? That is why Israel is such a beloved country; the Jews treat everyone equally.
Lastly, may I remind you: are we a Judeo-Christian nation? Let us suggest to the rest of the world to take care of their own. You have contacts around the world, might I respectfully request you write your opinion column to their newspapers in all their languages ask them what would Jesus say.
