I think it's truly ironic that most people who would call themselves 'Christians' in the next breath would say something along the lines of "well, I don't want my tax dollars going to help those lazy people who won't get a job", or "Why can't that homeless guy help himself?"

They truly forget Jesus' greatest teaching, Love God, and love each other. Not, love God and love each other when it's convenient for me.
That's part of the reason I kicked the habit. I have a lot of respect for Jesus--just have a problem with the religion that grew up around him.
