... As a Christian, I approve.
The idea that the government should run off of some merciless view that the principles of free market capitalism dictate who eats and who doesn't is completely bizarre.
I have nothing against capitalist Christians who think that the principles of capitalism are generally fine and that, otherwise, we have an obligation as Christians to feed the poor and it just so happens to not be the role of government, but any explicitly Christian state has to feed the poor.
Huh, I wouldn't expect to see a Christian on Lemmy.
Eh, might be a bit of... inverse confirmation bias there. Don't assume we're not here just because we're not proclaiming it in every comment. 🙃 There are plenty of us I'm sure, we're just mostly the sane and rational type of Christians you rarely hear much about. Those of us really striving to live like Christ have to practice a certain meekness, selflessness, and compassion for others that makes us highly unlikely to participate in flame wars and the like. 😅🙂
...it also makes many of us lean pretty far left.
There are dozens of us!
