As Christians, we can't say "don't have a beer because Jesus said" and "go get a job, stop asking for hand outs because ... well ...nevermind what Jesus said... get a job, bum."
But it's a question evangelicals need to be asking themselves. If they're for making America a Christian nation, why are they opposed to acting like Christians?
I'd imagine if you researched charitable organizations in the U.S. A number of Christian institutions would be pretty near the top.
I think the reason some are against welfare is the perception of what folks spend the money on given to them. We see/saw reports all the time of folks selling their food stamps, ect..
Personally, I willing to pay whatever taxes Congress deems necessary, but I see it as my civil duty; not my religious one.
