As a conservative Christian I am in it for the personal salvation only. That "help the poor" crap is for hippies.
its all such bullshit to wrap statism up in the idea they doing good for the individuals. Communist China and the Soviet Union vs capitialism... which lifted more people out of poverty.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Good points.Good Pope on pro life, profamily. but climate change is a scam; that's why we do NOT blindly follow anyone. That's wisdom, thanks................................
how are inner city blacks doing these days? was the last 50 years of govt expansion better for expanding govt or helping out those in the inner cities? can you answer friedman's questions? voting for socialism and democrats and establishment republicans is not the same as helping the poor and those in need. Its far from it. Voting for small govt and individual rights and opportunity with a bit of a safety net is far more caring.
Some here argue our poor have never had it so good, so in that sense inner city "blacks" are doing better than before. But stepping back a bit, 50 years ago we still had Jim Crow laws.
who on the planet argues the inner city has it good? their family structure has been destroyed.. gang violence, drugs, incarceration, 20 million abortions? have you passed through some of these areas in daylight hours? would you go near them at night? how's the murder rate in chicago? democrat policies have destroyed generations. Its is truly sad when you think about... yet we have trolls thinking big govt is better for people and voting democrat is more Christ like. voting for bigger govt is the opposite of compassion its voting for corruption.
The Catholic Church is something else. A fake priesthood inserts themselves between people and Jesus and hides plainly in the open for all the world to see. In order to do this they have to present a lot of false krap and keep their billion or so followers from understanding the Bible which plainly condemns said priesthood! It's little wonder that people like futurecurrents can't find their rational or spiritual ass with both hands considering that the world is run by con artists LOL
