Same reason why this racially insular and xenophobic city-state keeps on importing people from what it derisively calls the Sodom below. Because...actually, I don't know why they do it. But Columbia just seems to let any vagrant who rides a rocket and takes a baptism into the city, no questions asked. Now that I think about it, Columbia actually has more lenient border control (as in no border control) than lefties accuse America of having, even though Columbia is supposed to be a reflection of how they see America.
And yet despite this, Comstock and the people still fear some outside Apostate is going to come into the city and steal their precious lamb. If the stupid prophet just kept foreigners out, then he wouldn't have ever needed to worry about that! God, this game is almost a decade old, and I'm still discovering dumb shit about it.
