what I do or do not own is not the issue.

I'm addressing the hypocrisy of so-called xtians who claim they follow the teachings of Jesus and God, but then act like it doesn't apply to them when he said "feed the hungry, cloth the naked, shelter the homeless", etc.

I don't mind my tax dollars going to help those in need. At. All. I can make more money if needs be.
