"But they don't want to heal the sick and help the poor."
Since when? If you're referring to welfare and Obamacare...
Just blindly giving money to the poor isn't necessarily helping them. You have to know where that money goes, what it buys. RL example of this: When my family and I were leaving an Arby's, there was a beggar asking for money for food. My dad gave him 20 dollars. As we drove away, he was walking toward a store that certainly did not sell food. It sold drinks, but not the kind we would ever buy. After that, my dad noted never to hand a beggar on the street cash. Somewhere from 2 months to 1 year later, there was a beggar outside Burger King asking for money for food. My dad told him "Come on in with us," and bought him a meal. He was quite thankful.
Do you know how often people abuse food stamps? They sell $150 of food stamps on the internet for $70 so that they can get some quick cash to buy things food stamps can't buy. Also, there have been undercover police investigations that confirm there are multiple stores that have accepted food stamps for many non-food items.
Obamacare is just plain bad for the economy. It is a job killer and greatly increases the premiums of anyone that isn't using it, unless you're in one of the 5 few states that actually had premiums lower. Look at how much they spent making it, and how badly it failed for the first month or longer.
And if you'll notice, in the Bible, Jesus didn't go around looking for lazy couch potatoes, wallowing in their own self pity, with the power to change their situation, but not trying to, to perform miracles on. He helped those that came to him or were brought to him by family/friends, or those that had no way to change their situation but wanted to try anyways.

@tappier
So they basically don't want people to help the poor? |

| You're not really being forced to help them. It comes from taxes. |

| Even if you aren't Christian, you can still have their values: Kindness, Helpfulness, Determination, and MANY more. |

| I agree to this. Almost nothing they do in Congress has helped anybody but the rich. Plus, they seem (farther south) to want to take America back to the 1700's so rich caucasians can be in power. This isn't technologically, but governmentally. |

"Republicans want the US to be based on Christian values..."
That is correct.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, among other things.
Ridiculous taxation for things like Obamacare is not liberty.
