People who say they’re Christian and a Conservative, that’s an impossible mix. Your party says immigration is bad. But your god says:

Genesis 1:26-27: States that all people are made in the image of God and have inherent dignity

Deuteronomy 10:17-19: Commands God's people to love foreigners because they were once foreigners in Egypt

Exodus 22:21: States that foreigners should not be mistreated or oppressed

Leviticus 19:34: States that foreigners should be treated as native-born and loved as yourself

Leviticus 25:35: States that poor Israelites should be helped as if they were foreigners

Matthew 25:35: States that welcoming strangers is a way to show hospitality

Hebrews 13:2: States that hospitality to strangers should not be neglected

Interesting hypothesis, but you have completely demonstrated a total lack of understanding of the conservative view.

1. The Bible says nothing about approving illegal migration for the purpose of garnering votes from people who do not speak or read our language, and are easily led by others as to who to vote for.

2. The Bible does not encourage the use of these blind votes as a means of continuing the mass slaughter of millions of unborn children. While dems may not think these unborn children are people, I think you will be hard pressed to find approval for the extermination of the innocent.

3. The Bible does not speak with approval for the beneficiaries of this migration to inflict impossible tax burdens and quality of life burdens on everyday people whose resources are not consistent with the burdens placed on them by others who are creating this hardship merely for the the additional power of the additional votes.

4. This group of migrants are infiltrated by people who are committing incredible crimes against God and humanity and causing immense pain and suffering and death. The Bible doesn’t speak to people being forced to have the seeds of destruction planted on their front steps. The Bible does not speak approvingly of child trafficking, lethal drugs, and terrorists being provided a way to come to a place they wish to destroy.

5. The Bible also does not speak approvingly of people who pretend to humanitarian motives regarding immigration when in fact they are power hungry seekers of addional wealth. This deception of the innocent is abhorrent to the Almighty.

@MarthannBann888 What I find most odd about the liberal atheists is how they denigrate Christians for not doing what they are not doing. My church and church tradition has a long standing tradition of helping the hopeless by bringing them to safe harbour. If they are fleeing a war or political oppression we are here to help. Strangely the liberals/atheists never lift a finger to help. They make bellicose statements and accuse those who are helping but no way are they obligated to help. That is for others.
