White Evangelicals Are the Least Christ-Like When It Comes to Accepting Refugees Empty White Evangelicals Are the Least Christ-Like When It Comes to Accepting Refugees

When it comes to accepting the poor, the hungry, the thirsty, the sick, the least of these — you know, the people Jesus loved — white evangelical Christians are the least likely people to lend a helping hand.

A new Pew Research Center survey finds that white evangelicals rank lowest when it comes to saying the U.S. has a responsibility to accept refugees. Only 25% of them approve of accepting people who escape their countries and seek a better life in the United States, compared to 43% of white mainline Protestants and 65% of people without organized religion.

So I guess it’s official: Donald Trump is the new white evangelical savior. (Jesus, that Middle Eastern guy, should find another home. He’s not welcome here.)

That 25% is roughly the same as the 26% approval from the Republican Party, in case you needed more proof that the Venn diagram of the two groups is now approaching a circle.

Human resources are needed in countries with low birth rates. When a catastrophic earthquake devastated Haiti and almost every citizen became homeless, outsiders descended on the country and stole many children.

The abductors were eventually caught and had to return them back to Haiti.
