Respond to the use of Christianity as an argument for social programs and discuss the political affiliation of groups such as beggars, thieves, and prostitutes.
Missed the point. It has nothing to do with religion. You must know your audience and Gardner isn't a Denver/Boulder favorite.  I always get nervous when liberals use Jesus and Christianity as an argument for their prolific social programs.   I would have to agree with some of what you posted.  "Beggars, thieves, prostitutes..." are the stuff of the Democratic Party.
