Theology Against Immigration Litmus Tests

Religious reasoning can and should resist turning immigration into a binary political badge; a theological framework emphasizes case‑by‑case moral judgment (the author repeatedly says 'it depends'), resists scripture being 'torqued' to fit partisan positions, and encourages humility and local discernment. The piece models how faith traditions can supply moral categories (hospitality, justice, prudence) that complicate simple pro/anti migration stances. — If religious communities abandon litmus‑test politics they can moderate polarized migration debates and offer new coalitions that cut across partisan identity.
