I think a much more appropriate reference is the case of two women coming before Solomon claiming the baby is their baby.

There is a special case for people seeking US citizenship. They can jump to the front of the line if they are claiming asylum. But how do you know if their life is truly in danger or is this just a lie so they can jump in front of the line? Well, if you felt that your child would be killed if you return you would certainly stick to your story even if it meant being separated from your child, just as what happened in the case with Solomon.

Now it all makes sense!!

The border is now inundated with naughty children who got disciplined by their parents back in Central America and are now seeking asylum to get away from them. That's why they are happy to be separated at the border.

Kids are smart. They got social media. They are playing the system.

This is not a joke, being a refuge from persecution is a foundation of our country. But it is reasonable to be wise as serpents

There's been many news reports that these refugees are NOT fleeing from their own government for religious or ethnic persecution, but are escaping local crime, spousal abuse, vandalism, burglary, etc.

Using these same criteria, residents of Chicago, IL could also apply for asylum in the USA. I can't say I'd blame them.

Perhaps the residents of all of these California Sanctuary Cities will soon be going to the border and seek asylum in safer states like Ohio. Perhaps they will decide to take their children to the border in Texas, because they can get a better education there than in the Los Angeles public school system.

Since we're quoting Sessions, and Romans, I can't fault your fetishism of the Bible. Obviously, Sessions has the same fetish.

Why is quoting the Bible a "fetish?"

Do you have a fetishism for Daily Mail since you quote them so often?

He is jealous of anyone who has the word of God as a lamp unto their path.

Out here it looks like you are always trying to reference everything to the Bible, even modern science. That's a fetish.

Sessions obviously also has that same sort of fetish, or he wouldn't be quoting scripture to justify is atrocious heartless actions.

But America has a long history of using the Bible to support atrocities against others (usually of color). They used it to support genocide against the first nation peoples, also separating their children, and the same for slavery ... they separated children then too.

And Christians that support such actions aren't Christians, but in name only = CINO's.

And you, as moderator of the great alt-views, alone possesses authority to decide who are CINO's and who are real Christians.

You truly are the Moderator Of The Age!

Talking about heartless atrocities, could anything be worse than Solomon cutting that baby in half and giving one of the halves back to its mother? Yet that is how he was able to determine which one was lying and which one wasn't.
