It would be better for the Honduran family to be here legally, without having to claim asylum. Wanting to open borders is very libertarian, although the LP does not believe in open borders.
Evangelicals came to America because the English Church was becoming too Catholic. Garry Wills explains it well in Head and Heart The history of the Evangelicals in the north is the story of my family. The Southern Baptists, however, are not claimed by me or mine.
