So what's wrong with socialism? Isn't that what Christianity is all about - sharing, helping each other and taking care of the poor.

Capitalism is based on greed and greed is not a Christian virtue. In fact, it is one of the seven deadly sins.

I don't think Republicans know what Christianity is all about with their un-Christian attacks and lies about Barack Obama being a terrorist and inciting so much fear and hatred.

It appears they haven't heard of the commandment that says: "Thou shall not bear false witness."

To be a Christian means a follower of Jesus Christ, but Republicans seem to think that all there is to being a good Christian is banning abortion and banning gays. Christ said nothing about either.

What he did say over and over is help the poor and disadvantaged. "Sell everything you have and give to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven, then come follow me." Luke 18:22

And if you're afraid of voting for a black man, remember Christ, the greatest liberal, was also black, just like Obama.
