Has anyone argued otherwise?
Apparently rdean seems to think that when we object to using the government for robbery but instead encourage people to give of themselves voluntarily, we are exalting the rich and putting the poor down. However, his reasoning is clearly lacking.
Apparently Avatar4321 does not understand that his church is committed to social justice and that the government has a role in social justice, too.
Apparently Avatar4321 does not believe in King Benjamin's words in Mosiah 4, because everything Avatar4321 posts contradicts Benjamin's directions. They were not suggestions, Avatar4321, they were a king's theocratic government directions to the members of his kingdom.
Avatar4321 has not read David O. McKay, Hugh B. Brown, N. Eldon Tanner, Gordon B. Hinckley and dozens of LDS leaders who teach opposite to Avatar4321.
The church is not out of step, Avatar4321 is out of step.
Avatar's church is committed to social justice? How do you know that, have you been to it?
BTW, most churches that support social justice are extremely dogmatic and authoritarian. I know you personally support that, but it seems to me that that would conflict with Avatar's personality. He seems to be more of a free spirit type that thinks people should be free to make their own decisions and not have them decreed by a Pope who has forgotten what being a Christian is all about.
