NO Republicans say this. NONE. NEVER. What Republicans say, is that the handout should not come FROM THE GOVERNMENT. That's a very important distinction, here in the world's most charitable country.
Oh, yeah, and most of the single-mother situations in the black community are self inflicted as a result of fornication -- not widowhood. Another important distinction that is often glossed over. Demanding the charitable privileges of widowhood be extended to fornicators, amounts to forcing the good citizens to subsidize other peoples' sin.
[blacks] believe that even though republicans scream they are christians they are not doing one of the fundamental things that the bible says you should do, help the legitimately poor
Huge amounts are donated in this country to help the poor, and an awful lot of that money comes from religious conservatives. Once again, many members of the black community are confused about this because we (a) rightly oppose government intervention, believing that we should be charitable with our own money instead of money coercively extracted from others, and (b) because we normally don't sound a trumpet in front of ourselves when we give alms, as the liberal welfarists do. (Verily, they have their reward: votes.)
So ,as the bible says, he without the first sin throw the stone. You may chose if you think this person is unworthy, but then that is the fundamental reason why the minister and many blacks are saying repubicans are racist and not christians.
You have statistically decided that most problems in the black community are a result of fornication and you should not pay. But my question was not about fornicating mothers but a fatherless child. Also remember that many of the mothers that currently have children by black men are not just black women. The black community is seeing a great many white women that have "fornicated" as well.
I agree that the money should not be forced from you by the government. But if you have the thought process that you just indicated, how will you know when you are helping a person justifiablly in need or helping pay for someones sins (which I have never read about in my bible). In other words, what's to stop people like you from saying, well there is too much fornication in the black community so I'm not giving anymore money to charities that help them?
