He quoted the admonition of Christ to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, and said: "To the president of the United States, I simply say that God cannot be pleased with our response."

Amazing that he is still clinging to the threadbare banner of the social gospel. Christ's admonition to feed the hungry did not include tasking government with forcibly removing countless billions from one sector of the population in order to inefficiently give it another without regard for the heart and soul of the recipient. But I suppose the social gospel was never too concerned with the soul of the people, was it?

They use scripture as a tool for power, not as a tool for good.
