Immigration has been a hot-button issue for the last couple decades, but it seems to me that often people seem to forget two points when discussing the topic.
1) All people are created in the image and likeness of God. This amazing and wondrous nature behind every man, woman, and child means that they must be treated with the dignity owed to them as God's children.
2) Civil governments have the right to make laws to order society, and provided these laws are not in contradiction with human dignity are to be followed by members of society.
