before you decide in the innigration bill, you need to read this.?

Question

it isn't anti immigration, it qualifies what the issue should be really about:

>>Written in response to a series of letters to the editor in the Orange
>>County Register:
>>
>>Dear Editor:
>>
>>So many letter writers have based their arguments on how this land is made
>>up of immigrants. Ernie Lujan for one, suggests we should tear down the
>>Statue of Liberty because the people now in question aren't being treated
>>the same as those who passed through Ellis Island and other ports of
>>entry.
>>
>>Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people like Mr.
>>Lujan why today's American is not willing to accept this new kind of
>>immigrant any longer. Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of
>>Europe to come to the United States, people had to get off a ship and
>>stand in a long line in New York and be
>>documented. Some would even get down on their hands and knees and kiss the
>>ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and support their new
>>country in good and bad times. They made learning English a primary rule
>>in their new American households and some even changed their names to
>>blend in with their new home.
>>
>>They had waved go good bye to their birth place to give their children a
>>new life and did everything in their power to help their children
>>assimilate into one culture.
>>
>>Nothing was handed to them. No free lunches, no welfare, no labor laws to
>>protect them. All they had were the skills and craftsmanship they had
>>brought with them to trade for a future of prosperity. Most of their
>>children came of age when World War II broke out. My father fought along
>>side men whose parents had come straight over from
>>Germany, Italy, France and Japan. None of these 1st generation Americans
>>ever gave any thought about what country their parents had come from. They
>>were Americans fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of Japan. They
>>were defending the United States of America as one people. When we
>>liberated France, no one in those villages were looking for the
>>French-American or the German American or the Irish American. The people
>>of France saw only Americans. And we carried one flag that represented one
>>country. Not one of those immigrant sons would have thought about picking
>>up another country's flag and waving it to represent who they were. It
>>would have been a disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so much to
>>be here. These immigrants truly knew what it meant to be an American. They
>>stirred the melting pot into one red, white and blue bowl.
>>
>>And here we are in 2006 with a new kind of immigrant who wants the same
>>rights and privileges. Only they want to achieve it by playing with a
>>different set of rules, one that includes the entitlement card and a
>>guarantee of being faithful to their mother country. I'm sorry, that's not
>>what being an American is all about. I believe that the immigrants who
>>landed on Ellis Island in the early 1900's deserve better than that for
>>all the toil, hard work and sacrifice in raising future generations to
>>create a land that has become a beacon for those legally searching for a
>>better life. I think they would be appalled that they are being used as an
>>example by those waving foreign country flags.
>>
>>And for that suggestion about taking down the Statue of Liberty, it
>>happens to mean a lot to the citizens who are voting on the immigration
>>bill. I wouldn't start talking about dismantling the United States just
>>yet.

>>P. S. Pass this on to everyone you know!!! KEEP THIS LETTER MOVING!!
>>I hope this letter gets read by millions of people all across the nation.

Answer 1

Thank you for the information....

Answer 2

Well, what evidence does anyone have that God even exists? Besides the bible, who is reliability and expertise is tremendously questionable. And even supposing there have been certain evidence that the STORIES within the bible had been precise, has someone truthfully learn the vile and creepy experiences within the bible? Seriously who could desire to worship any individual/anything like that?!? As to your query... I relatively do not suppose God created earth, the Big Bang did, and IF he did create earth, who created the opposite planets, Other Gods?? Which is not feasible because that there's just one God in line with the oh so plausible bible. But if he did, he used to be almost always simply chillin at the earrings of Saturn.

Answer 3
