But Democrats typically treat hell as having room for only two people \u2014 Hitler and Trump \u2014 when they\u2019re not calling anyone who believes in it a hateful sadist. So it seems strange to see a Democrat eagerly jump into the discussion of that fiery extremity, at least until viewers realize that this was just another form of leftists pulling fake Jesus out of the closet to condemn stuff they don\u2019t like.<\/p>\n<p>Conveniently for Democrats, fake Jesus is flexible: On the one hand he\u2019s holding hell over the heads of those enforcing immigration laws \u2014 even when federal enforcement of those laws protects vulnerable women and children from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/news\/2025\/10\/06\/ice-law-enforcement-works-without-pay-they-arrest-more-worst-worst-over-weekend\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rapists<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/10\/07\/exclusive-pedophiles-abusers-among-aliens-arrested-by-ice-while-dems-withhold-agents-paychecks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">child abusers<\/a>. On the other hand, he never says boo to anyone about anything when it comes to something like transing the kids.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an age-old distortion of the truth that God is both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Psalm%209%3A7&amp;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">just<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=1%20john%204%3A8&amp;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">loving<\/a>, just as Beshear\u2019s use of the Golden Rule and the Good Samaritan to justify blocking measures to protect children from insidious lies and mutilation is also a distortion of the truth.<\/p>\n<p>The Golden Rule, for the record, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=matthew%207&amp;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">is actually<\/a> \u201cSo\u00a0whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is\u00a0the Law and the Prophets.\u201d But neither the Golden Rule nor the command to \u201clove your neighbor as yourself\u201d creates a moral imperative to give people whatever they want carte blanche, as Beshear suggests. Jesus explains the Golden Rule immediately after telling His disciples to ask for good gifts because their heavenly Father will give them. Regardless of what Democrats think, the context shows that He wasn\u2019t talking about handing out fentanyl and elective mastectomies. <\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the Good Samaritan \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=luke%2010&amp;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bound up \u2026 the wounds<\/a>\u201d of the waylaid Jericho-bound man \u2014 he didn\u2019t further mutilate him or offer him MAID. The Samaritan \u2014 to the surprise of Jesus\u2019 listeners \u2014 acted more righteously than the drive-by priest and the Levite, but the point of the story isn\u2019t his immigration status or LGBT rights or whether all 8 billion \u201cneighbors\u201d should have automatic rights to enter the U.S. whenever they please. Rather, the parable of the Good Samaritan is Jesus\u2019 answer to a self-righteous, eternal-life-seeking lawyer (think Old Testament law) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=luke%2010&amp;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">who wanted<\/a> \u201cto justify himself.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The context matters, and Democrats seem quite allergic to context, which is why they repeatedly offer manipulative, microwaved interpretations of passages from a book they actually hate. For their own eternal spiritual well-being (and the spiritual well-being of the people they\u2019re lying to), now would be a good time to stop.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>\n  Joshua Monnington is an assistant editor at The Federalist.
