Minneapolis Police Chief Proves His Theological Ignorance

If there's one insulting thing, it's how the Left picks and chooses when it does and doesn't like Christianity. When it comes to abortion or gay marriage, the Left wants Christians to keep their Bible passages to themselves. The state, on the other hand, can force religious persons to participate in abortions or punish them for not adequately celebrating gay marriage.

That's (D)ifferent. 

But their favorite topic on which to use Christianity as a cudgel is illegal immigration. They somehow think the immigration laws in ancient, Roman-ruled Judea and Galilee are equivalent to ours today.

Any time someone begins a sentence with, "Having been raised a Catholic" you know what follows is theologically illiterate at best and downright blasphemous at worst.

The good Chief's statement was somewhere in between. Joseph and Mary weren't outsiders, and they weren't "forced" to stay in a barn. They returned to Joseph's hometown of Bethlehem, the city of David in Judea, for the census. He was following the law. So were many others, which is why there was no room at any lodging, and they had to stay in the barn. It had nothing to do with being unwelcomed or discriminated against.

Literally everything. We're surprised he got "Joseph" and "Mary" correct.

That's a more charitable way of saying that.

Yes, this.

@GovTimWalz and @MayorFrey owe @ICEGov a big thank you.

They're just like Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

Not.

All of this.
