Christian Liberals & Progressive People of Faith

The one hit answer is that the republican party upholds, protect, and cares more of our social values. They hold my position on same-sex marriage, abortion and capital punishment. As for feeding the poor, counseling people, healing the sick... well in short, I'm pretty sure we don't care about the government doing those things because we Christians already do them at Church. Its funny that you mention all this things... feeding the poor, counseling people and healing the sick... and I immediately thought about Church. And as a result see other issues as more important, like capital punishment, abortion, same-sex marriage or anything relating to our Christian faith.

I'm personally am okay with well-fare to an extent but I know people that have benefited and taken advantage of it. But, since the republican party best represents me, I'll cast my vote to it.

So in short, Church feeds the hungry, clothes the poor, counsels people.... heck personally I got a homeless person off the streets and drove him to a Christian shelter. That's why it's not the biggest concern because Christian rights have it covered... so we worry about other issues.

Edit: I just wanted add.... God told us Christians to be Christ and we're doing so. Just because you don't see Christians overwhelmingly voting for well-fare and all those problems doesn't mean Christians are not ALREADY supporting well-fare and other programs, we are.
