"conservative right wing so-called Christians"
So I am a conservative right wing Republican, so I can't be a Christian? You must be some kind of expert. By the way this conservative right wing CHRISTIAN, worked 5 years in a food bank with several right wing Christians.
Your not as smart as you thought.

Who said anything about not voting?
However, I do imply that "conservative right wing so-called Christians" do nothing except regurgitate and believe proven perversions.
The brain washing is wide spread....what would Christ say?

When you do not vote you are voting for the incumbent. With the majority being democrat, a non vote is for abortion on demand and gay marriage.
I am not talking about a contest but do not imply that because I am republican that I do not volunteer and give food to the homeless.

I really didn't know this was a contest. I practice Jesus's words every single day. My 'fruits' will be judged by Him.
I am not the one who posts misery for a political agenda.
May God have mercy on your soul.

How often do you give out food to the homeless? How many years have you worked in a food bank as a volunteer? Come back and tell me and I will tell you my history.

With these 10 poorest cities in the nation, I am sure they are swamped with caring compassionate "Christians" willing and are currently helping them.

Good post, but the politics doesn't mean anything.
Now that we (as Christians) know, what can we do to help our fellow human beings.....of course 'love others as yourselves'
Please let us know since you brought this to light.

I loved this post.
Especially the quote. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
--------------------
With you I rise,
In you I sleep,
kneeling down I kiss your feet,
Grace abounds upon me now,
I once was lost
but now I'm found.
The gift of God dwells within,
To this love I now give in.

What do the top ten cities

Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.'
It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats
yet they are still POOR!
"You cannot help the poor
by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak
by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity
by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up
by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man
by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage
by taking away people's initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently
by doing for them,
what they could and
should do for themselves."
Abraham Lincoln
