Christians do not want the government deciding how much of the citizens money they will take to provide what services the government thinks are necessary and how it is to be regulated. Most Christians are happy to help truly needy people. While it may not be true in large impersonal cities, out here in the country we know who needs help and what they need. We know if they need help with cooking or cleaning, or someone to take the kids to school. We know who needs some things from our garden, help with the new baby or the new puppy. We give food to those who truly need it, welcome strangers into our home for a few days or mail books to those who might enjoy something new to read. What we will not do is provide food to someone who is too lazy to cook but able to purchase and do their own cooking. We won't hand someone $20.00 to go buy cigarettes, or candy and cookies. You want to eat that kind of trash buy it yourself, want to destroy your body don't demand that we pay for it. The Bible does not tell us to help people destroy their lives and those of their children, but instead, tells us to help them stop destroying themselves, that's called tough love, although not up to the Sodam and Gomorah level.
