How about in economics we teach that you can tax your way to prosperity ...
(ooops doing that)
If religious scriptures are the source for all knowledge, then I'm sure if you can find a lot of pro-big government arguments in them.
In fact, I would argue that religious scriptures are socialist. Curing sick and blind without charging them? What is this, communism? What about the pharmaceutical industry? Who will continue to make medicines if miracles are for real?
:D
