Why do a person need a visa to get to another country, while God created all people in his image?

Answer 1

Visa is important because it allows a country to regulate the entry of aliens by allowing only those with legitimate purposes.

Answer 2

God did not create all people in his own image. That is a false statement issued by religious zealots trying to appease normal people from some form of hatred or other. God is supposed to have made A man(adam) and a woman(eve). According to christian teaching no others were made. So we are all made from an incestuous beginning. I think not. As for visas. Well they are an invention made by those who have, to keep those who have not away, or to keep those who have something elseundesirable away.

Answer 3

First of all there is no God or Gods. They do not exist, they are part of the creative myth dreamed up by man to comfort him in the cold starry night.

Secondly countries evolved from city states, which evolved from farming communities. Again they are the creation of man.

Man or rather humans need identity to organise themselves and to promote team behaviour. The nation state has evolved as the largest form of group identity in the modern world (faith is a competing identity type).

In the future other types of identity may emerge, and national identity may fade. I rather think that national identity is already breaking down in some regions. Europe for example is attempting to soften the once rigid national identities. In some parts of the Southern USA national identity may also be blurred by mass immigration from the rest of the Americas. With jet travel and increasing GDP per head world wide these trends will broaden and deepen. A world government is still a long way off, but it is to be hoped that international travel will become easier with time and that eventually we might learn to get along with each other without the need for these narrow divisions of national identity.

Answer 4

True. And treating people differently on the basis of nationality. is bad and I would say illegal as well as immoral. Still there are countries where Law and Democracy rule and they are though not perfect usually the more developed and more pleasant to live permanently in. On the other hand there are countries whose governments are corrupt and crooked and the people there usually live in fear and poverty. It's only human and natural that they want the better life of their wealthier neighbors. Unfortunately the rich countries are not that rich to accommodate the population of the poor ones without seriously jeopardizing the foundations they are built on: first and foremost the well-being and agreement of their citizens. The solution:
Imagine there is no country, I wonder if you can...
Still we can only imagine but that doesn't make it less real.

Answer 5

Its the rules I'm afraid, it's nothing to do with god. We were all created differently so it's only fair that people work to deserve the right to live in anothers country that they weren't born in.

Answer 6

God didn't create taxes, welfare issues, government healthcare services or crime either.
A community can not sustain itself or prosper if the rate of consumption of services and resources is greater than the rate of contribution toward the provision of services and resources. The result would be a degradation in standard of living across the board.
Also, a community has a right to require proof of a potential citizen's credibility before deciding wether or not to open its doors. In this way, authority is able to protect society from things like criminals and disease.

Answer 7

we are in his image that is true, but he never created the passport man did. but dont worry my good man, all will be well,
have a good long look at the old prophets, just before the end the wicked shall slay each outher.Satan wants a one world order, by making man think he is capable of such. he is not.But God is when he returns in the midst of war to finish off the wicked and bind up satan, the we will have no borders, and all will be free.

Answer 8

Who said God created man in his own image,,have you never heard of evolution?

Answer 9

He put man in the garden and then he forced him out.

He drove Cain from his sight, to another place.

I think visa's are right in line with the Creator's way of doing business.

Best wishes,

Answer 10

IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD. unfortunately we have many gods that people worship, and they all look different,thats why we have regulations to control the passage of people into and out of countries, you would not like to have some people as guests in your country. they are classed as undersirables, murderers, pheodophiles child molesters, terrorists, and every country have them, so why inflict those types of people onto another country. regards lf.
