From the Psychology Today essay by Nathan Heflick who [without mentioning Richard Land] wrote:
There are about a zillion verses in the Bible saying we should help the poor, show compassion, be loving (it is the chief virtue right?) etc etc. What I cannot find is a verse where Jesus doesn't help others, or even argues for that. It seems I live in a parellel universe where somehow this equates to "but people who are poor are lazy and shouldn't get our help." Do you really think Jesus would oppose universal healthcare because his taxes would get raised? Really?
