The Bible contains something like 2,000 references to the poor and the believer's responsibility for the poor. Sadly, that obligation seems not to have trickled down into public policy.
And remember, Jesus said not word one about homosexuality. Not a single word. But he had a lot to say about our responsibility to feed the hungry and clothe the naked. He also said it was easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to get into the Kingdom of Heaven. I really don't understand these evangelicals and fundamentalists who go on and on about Jesus and yet seem not to take any notice of what the man actually said.
