    And since actions speak louder than words, you have given all your wealth away
    and are volunteering your days and nights doing good will work, right? Or does
    the "right" only claim morality when it comes in the form of xenophobia and
    (gasp!!!) sex?

    Or you can tell me how Jesus would have supported the doctrine of feeding the
    poor by making the wealthy even wealthier?

    With all the wealth in this country, if "charity" worked so well, why do we have
    more poor, homeless and hungry than any other western nation on this earth?

    Or you can tell me how Jesus professed the belief in social darwinism?

    Guess the "right" doesn't really follow Jesus after all, eh? This makes sense of
    course, as Jesus would not advocating turning people away from hospitals
    because they were "illegal immigrants". Another example of the wondrous
    morality of the "right".
