WOW, I salute your boldness and your stance for the gospel of Jesus Christ. I agree with some of your points and disagree at the same time. I personally believe in the trickle down effect, when it comes to helping our wealthy. The reason is simple I have never been given a job by a poor man. I also believe that we the church should be solely responsible for helping the poor and needy it is not the job of our government that is our job. We are called to help those who are in need, however we are not called to help the lazy and that is what seems to be the case oh so many times in today's society. If we as Christians would band together and do as we are told to do (that is spread the gospel, feed the poor etc...), we would not have the dependence on our government that we have today. We have made Jesus into a middle class man who dressed up to go to synagogue on the Sabbath and then go home and go to work on Sunday only to do it all over again the next week. This could not be farther from the truth. Jesus was a homeless man who devoted his whole life to serving the one true GOD.

If you would take note I said this is all what I believe just my opinion. Some of it may be my political views mixed with my deep southern Baptist heritage. I do agree that Jesus is weeping but I believe it is how far we have fallen in the last 2000 years while claiming to be Christians. Almost like the church in Corinth if you ask me.

Thank you for posting such a powerful thread.
