God Has No Borders...But America Does

Source: International Herald Tribune

Church groups led marches along both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border to protest the use of fences to stop migrants.

Nearly 100 members of churches in Arizona and Mexico marched Sunday on either side of a wall near the town of Naco, which straddles the border.

On the Mexico side, Father Guillermo Coronado of La Iglesia San Jose in Naco, Sonora, said more people need to organize similar demonstrations.

"This is a sign of what needs to be done in all the border states rather than rejecting and ignoring other human beings," he said. "The greatest gift we have is that we are human beings with a mission to love and be happy. God has no borders."
I don't see anyone trying to keep people from entering into a relationship with God. The border between the U.S. and Mexico (or any other countries, for that matter) is to keep people from entering the country illegally, not the faith.

You're mixing apples and oranges here, Padre. Apples and oranges.
