I believe that, sometimes, until you& #39;re removed from the American Christian (AC) perspective and exposed to other cultures, religions, and Christians from other cultures...

it& #39;s nearly impossible to see how much and where our American perspective has truly affected our view of the Bible.
I& #39;ll be honest, it& #39;s been hard to be back and see how patriotism and nationalism have shaped American Christianity.

AC doesn& #39;t truly want separation of church and state which is why prolife is so central to their platform. But what I really don& #39;t understand is how Healthcare for all is bad? Taking care of people& #39;s basic needs is incredibly Biblical. What hc for all is not, is American.

We& #39;ve fallen into a deep trap of thinking that these American principals are Christian principals because that is what the political parties and American politics have convinced us of.
Idk. I have so many thoughts on this and struggle to articulate them.

I legitimately want to know a solid biblical argument for not providing for people& #39;s basic needs, like Healthcare.
And "thats the church& #39;s job" is not a functional argument because the church isn& #39;t doing it and you& #39;re not separating the church from your other political beliefs.
