I have called a few reps who claim to be Christian and acted like a Christian but said things

like, "I don't know why you are so obsessed with hating people who are trying to come here to protect their children" Jesus says in Matthew 25: 31-40. “I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” "I know you want to be like Jesus right?"

"It seems as if you are not trying to help the immigrants and the poor and hungry. I just wanted to remind you what Jesus said as I live my life by it."

Don't get mad and call them names. Pretend you are one of them. And I consider myself one of them because I believe in what Jesus said.

Also it says in the bible that you are to treat the foreigner as part of your family/tribe/group


I called Marjorie TG and spoke to one of her assistants. The guy was really nice and said, "God bless you" at the end. I know that is just one thing but if enough of us call if may have an impact. We won't know until we try.

I am going to call Tubby the villain and explain to him that the best way to absolutely stop abortions is to make contraception free and widely available. You cannot have an abortion unless you are pregnant.

they don’t believe their own xtianity…it’s just a con for the rubes. Just like those grifting mega-church preachers (and most of the small church preachers also)

Maybe there are plenty who do not care but I know that there are many who will recognize their hypocrisy. I've seen it on message boards.
