Because that is not what is happening. You have a very limited description of what is actually going on and falsely believing Jesus taught this.
These Central Americans simply can’t please their privileged critics up North. Either they bring their children with them, (“How DARE THEY subject their children to such a dangerous journey??”), or they leave them behind hoping to send for them later, (“How DARE THEY break up their families like that??”)
And again, I think this accusation toward the Pope is irrationally cynical. Did you absorb the point in my last post? About how the amount of aid isn’t proof of anyone’s intentions? Why assume the worst in Peter’s successor?
Oh goodness gracious! The Church has already criticized the Trump administration for separating families and been accused of “meddling.”
I see. Then do you believe the Pope is evil? Or at least doing evil?
And it’s these types responses that make me wonder why you are being so one sided. You know very well you are twisting my words around when you say things like this. It might help for you to note that Pres Obama put add on Central American TV, radio, billboards asking people not to subject their children to the journey as well. It is not unreasonable for people to actually see truth in both sides of a political debate instead of buying completely into one activist groups talking points.
Noting a contradiction is not one-sided. It’s factual. They’re criticized no matter what they do.
I believe the deliberate political aggression of encouraging mass illegal migration and abusing asylum processes to force millions of people into western countries against the clear wishes of its people under the new manufactured secular morality is demonic.
There is no penalty for legal migrants who are accepted into the country under a mutual agreement and respect for law environment. Please rephrase the question so it is accurate and not prejudiced.

At this time, I prefer the neutral term “migrants” until they enter the U.S. and have their claims for asylum processed. It is legal to seek asylum.
The fact that your side constantly creates straw men to argue with shows you are not capable of engaging with reality.
I’m sorry you feel that way. I’m also sorry you believe the Pope is demon possessed. You are wrong on both points.
Asylum is for those fleeing their own country. Is it really for those fleeing their own country and every other until they hit the US?
Your term ‘migrants’ makes no sense with your original question. The term non documented immigrants is also Leftist double speak and makes little sense. These people are illegal immigrants being lured into another jurisdiction for aggressive political advantage in a direct and aggressive disrespecting of the citizens wishes of that jurisdiction.
The proper penalty for illegal immigrants being lured into another jurisdiction for aggressive political advantage in a direct and aggressive disrespecting of the citizens wishes of that jurisdiction is that they should be sent home so as to stop the unjust movement of these people. If these people continue to break the law in the same way they should be incarcerated either in the jurisdiction they are disrespecting or better still their own jurisdiction.
Yes much of the asylum laws were drawn up as a response to the end of World War 2.
Under US law a person seeking asylum is under no obligation to request it in any particular country. The asylum seeker gets to chose in which country they seek asylum.
The United States gave over a two million dollars to Guatemala in 2017. Totals are fully calculated for 2018 and 2019. That money comes from every tax payer. How much is enough to show that we love them?
I don’t think a specific dollar amount is what will “show that we love them,” and I am afraid that giving money to many of these countries will actually make the problems worse. Corruption and a lack of system to distribute funds to the needy leads to the lining of politicians pockets. Money earmarked for fighting crime only pays cartels and other criminals to avoid certain areas at certain times. It will take more than just money to make any sort of impact on Latin America. And money itself can actually make problems worse
I’ve studied Jesus long enough to know that he didn’t put limits on love. That’s why following him is so hard, and why people have been putting conditions on his words for 2000 years.
Jesus ignored politics. He follows God’s law, not man’s law. God commands love of your neighbor. If your nation allows less than that, your nation is wrong. This is actually the best example yet of US politics forcing a compromise with God’s moral law.
