I have to agree with DeltAlum. Both sides (meaning Democrats and Republicans) tend to believe Jesus/God is on their side, which to me, is a fallacy. Why? Jesus and God love everyone and want everyone to agree, which will never be because we're human. I have to agree that Jesus would say for everyone to clean up his or her act, no matter the political party, and to do what's right for everyone. I also do not believe Jesus would say giving to the poor should be forced or voluntary. I believe he would say that giving to the poor is everyone's responsibility. I believe he would say that the more you attain, earn, etc., the more is expected of you. Kind of like a "You don't use it, you lose it" deal. I truly believe those who don't do out of the kindness of their hearts will lose what they have because they ARE greedy, and greed doesn't get you anywhere, at least in my book.
