Im an Atheist and I dont want the goverment deciding for me what I share. If I share anything it is because I have compassion doesnt make me a socialist. I believe every man should make his own tracks in the snow. If I give you something its a gift, if the goverment gives you something, its at the cost of the taxpayer and is more costly than my gift, its rides on the back of anothers time and labor, through the hands of many. My point is goverment involvement is costly and should be minimal. If the jockey gets to fat, the horse collapses and the race is over. Doesnt have anything to do with god.
Dont be so narrow minded that you miss the point trying to make your own.

Cheers
Paul
