• Jesus said whatever you do to the least of these my brothers you've done it to me. And this is what I've come to think.

This I know will go against the teachings of all the popular evangelical preachers. But they're just wrong. They're not bad, they're just wrong. Christianity is about learning to love like Jesus loved and Jesus loved the poor and Jesus loved the broken-hearted.
