Which Way Home?

March 3, 2011

I’m currently watching the documentary, “Which Way Home”, and I am incredibly moved and aggravated by the topic of immigration.  I am enraged by all people who claim the rights to America and who would go so far as to deport the “other”, the stranger, the neighbor.  I fail to see how these “political” decisions line up with Jesus’ model or teachings.  I fail to see how this expresses love towards others.  I fail to see why I deserve a job over any of the young boys on this film who leave their entire family to go to America to find work.

Somebody help me understand?
