The conservative Christians I know want the government to keep its hand out of their pockets, so that they are fully free to show Christian charity according to the dictates of their conscience.

Personally I don't believe any Christian conservatives who truly want to give freely to charity....... would have their panties in twist about their tax dollars going to help the poor etc.

Especially considering our taxes pay for MANY less virtuous causes.

I really think this is a phony argument.

You are on a site that is full of Christian conservatives, we don’t agree with you, but the truth is, that wasn’t what you saying anyway.

You are just playing the liberal game of pretending that govt. power is the same as “Christian charity”.

Why do you even hang out with conservatives with beliefs like you have?

This is a damning article about Huckabee, you should try reading it through conservative eyes.

In this case Jorge, it’s not the tax money per se, it’s the idea that businesses are getting subsidized healthcare for the workers and the entire community is footing the bill in the form of higher taxes and crowded schools.
