Letters: SC would have turned away Mary, Joseph
What would Jesus do? He most certainly would not deny sanctuary to Syrian refugees. Where are the real Christians of South Carolina? They are certainly not in our governor’s mansion. Are they in the churches? If so, let us hear from them. Don’t tell me God is love and then vote to turn away the victims of terrorism.
These refugees will wait as much as two years to be thoroughly vetted before they are allowed to come to this country, but that isn’t enough for the faux Christians, who are too busy complaining about the “war on Christmas.”
Just as the United States turned away Jews before World War II, Mary and Joseph wouldn’t be welcomed at our S.C. inn either, would they? For shame.
