The Temptations of God (opens the original)
Read excerpt

They stand strong fighting for a Christian nation, with an arrogance that only seems appropriate for true believers.Our actions do seem right to us if we see G

They are civilians and deserve to be treated as such.It’s a moral and legal failure for Trump to use Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as his own military force to capture, detain, and deport the undocumented and act as though they were combatants.The undocumented, of course, are also legal persons, with the right to due process, as stated in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution.
