[quote=Anonymous]I guess what I don't understand is why Jesus healed the sick and fed the poor, and yet so many modern evangelicals are against providing health for all. Instead, they give to their country club churches. A study done by the Aspen Institute found that the average US church spends just 3% of its budget on social programs, with over 70% of revenues goingto building and salaries and the rest to Christian education. Yet somehow they think their choices are moral. I'm not religious, but one of the reasons that I live in the DIstrict is that I believe that I have a duty to help subsidize the poor, so I pay almost 10 percent of my income in taxes, which helps to fund public health and educational facilities for people who actually are poor. This is why I look at most evangelicals and think "hypocrites", and I think they are making poor moral choices.[/quote]
