I noted about a week ago that one of the biggest abuse of a bible verse is the one in which Cain replied to the Lord, “Am I my brother's keeper?” Most people assume that this rhetorical question is “yes,” but the correct answer is “no”. We are NOT our brother's keeper. Should we care about our brother, of course we should, but we are NOT his keeper. In order to be someones keeper, we would have to control his behavior. We would have to be his jailer and keep him behind bars. We would have to control him as a parent controls his one year old child. God never intended us to become slaves to someone else or to a government.
According to Obama, the government wants to be our keeper. That is exactly what we do not want.

In other words, “Yes, I am my Brother’s Keeper. I have him buried over there in the field next to that tree.”
