Don’t give the kids food; just pray for them?
Don’t give them water; just pray for them?
Don’t give them warm winter clothing; just pray for them?
I set the bar a lot higher than most liberals, but I would see it as EVERY parent’s responsibility to provide their children with food, shelter and medical care. If they fail, they need to be held accountable.
Seems to me these two never got as far in their Bible reading as James 2:14-17.
14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
I know it’s kind of at the end of the book and they don’t exactly look like “people of letters,” but I’d have hoped somebody would have shared this passage with them.

I bet the kids would have preferred to go to a doctor.
