Lets say that there's a line to see the doctor. The doctor is being compassionate and performing services for free. Someone jumps the line, getting ahead of all the people waiting correctly. Is serving that person instead of sending them back compassionate? No. Its a horrible offense to those doing the right thing.

Allowing illegals to stay and get benefits is not compassionate. It is the opposite of compassion. It is taking away from others. Others who have an equal need, but who are trying to get the need taken care of properly.

For instance why are we giving illegals benefits when we have not yet taken care of our vets.

Paragraph one. False analogy. No one in the line is threatening the life of anyone.

Paragraph, tell me what Christ's parable about workers in the vineyard hired during various parts of the day says.

Paragraph one: no analogy is perfect, but this one is close.

Paragraph two: thank you for bringing that parable up, as it reinforces my point. Christ says that you should be content with WHAT WAS AGREED upon beforehand, even if someone else agreed upon the same wage for less work.

What he DIDNT say is that it's ok for someone to to take away what was agreed upon when they didn't do the work. To work in the field, they had to talk to the owner first. They couldn't just walk in and get everything everyone else was getting.
