LOL! When I come to the States and fill the I-94 form, I am referred to as an ALIEN! So what would God think of people calling one another alien on the SAME PLANET!

He would say to "Give unto Caesar what is Caesar, and unto God's what is God's."
God would expect of us to craft laws that are merciful. But he also expects us to express some deference to the laws individually as people. When you go into another person's country without obeying their immigration laws, you:
1.) Tap out their social services - services that you are helping to stretch too thin for others - by putting yourself in a position where you can't easily work and become prosperous.
2. Make it harder for the country you are essentially invading to secure its sovereign territory; even if you yourself are not a terrorist, some of their security efforts have to be now directed at you and people like you, since your clandestine efforts make it easier for terrorists to slip in among you in the same cracks you did.
3. Make it harder for the country in question to develop social policy, and evolve naturally. The country can take censuses, but really has no idea what its demographics are like, what the peoples' needs are - since there are so many it doesn't know about so many.
In any given country there are people who are poor and suffering. Prosperous countries with few such people certainly have to be more generous to those with many. But doing an end-run around Caesar does specifically go against what Jesus prescribed... individuals cannot decide for themselves what the law is, because if that is legitimate... then there really are no laws....

Well, God wants people to obey the laws of the land. Unless someone is seeking emergency asylum in the US... i think people should go through the due process to enter this country so they won't face any hardships from Immigration police once they get here. May parents did it the right way (coming from Pakistan) and by God's grace, my family and I have thrived here.
God bless America!

"Render to Caesar the things of Caesar and the things of God to God".
In other words, name calling(Illegal Alien) is Mans invention. The Laws governing ( aliens) in the United States is also the business of those who the laws represent.
God does not interfere in "the best-laid plans of mice and men....."

If there is a God why would he care? Kill the illegal alien and that might be considered bad.

It's all part of the game, I guess... the "perpetrateor" and "victim" (and there might be a role-exchange depending on the perciever) are both made by the so-called-God, right?!

Read the old testament you will find God was not in favor of giving over your land or rights to those not from your own country.
