or, Why God is a liberal
The Bible contains more than 300 verses on the poor, social justice, and God
's deep concern for both. This page contains a wide sample of them, and some
reflections. It's aimed at anyone who takes the Bible seriously.
As you read these passages, you will very likely feel a good deal of

and possibly without equal in this country's politics since the beginning.
Events have certainly demolished that little trope. Within weeks of the
