re: Do Your Political Views Directly Reflect Your Religious Views?

Ever hear of the Red Cross? Salvation Army? These Christian based organizations were once much more significant in the world in meeting people's needs. Do you know how often today churches help with homeless shelters and soup kitchens?

Yes. I’ve heard of the Red Cross. And its establishment had nothing to do with religion. You do know that the Red Cross uses government money for relief efforts? It is a contracted agency.

Provide some proof they are less significant.

I already said there is good work being done You haven’t shown when it alone wa solely the provider and that it met all needs.

It isn’t surprising that you chopped my last paragraph. Lol

Lastly, when you attempt to make your arguement it is best to at least k ke what you are taking about.

Roberts isn’t a Stanford economist. He is a research fellow at the Hoover Institue, which is located at Stanford.

Stanford didn’t hire him. He wasn’t hired to teach and publish.

And of course he would be a proponent of that idea. He works for an institute that advocates limited gov. Nothing wrong with that.

I’m not sayjnf he is wrong, but let’s not pretend what the mission of his employer is. It’s not like they are going to Paul Krugman.

Stanford would. But not the Hoover. Again, that doesn’t make him bad or wrong, but let’s be honest.
