Clergy call you a racist

First it was Barney Frank, now it's the National Council of Churches:
At its September board meeting, the National Council of Churches approved a resolution essentially supporting virtually open borders for the U.S, ascribing support for border control to "fear" and racism.
"We acknowledge the ease with which we as human beings are prone to fear people who we consider 'other,' yet our faith challenges us to overcome such natural fear of those who are not like us," the NCC intoned. It recalled America's struggle to overcome "racial, ethnic, gender and religious discrimination." And it expressed distress that America may currently succumb to "fear, xenophobia, and racist impulses directed against new immigrants."
And, as always, remember: If you deny that you're a racist, that only proves you're a racist.
