Read the wikipedia link. Free and subsidized lunch programs have been in place at a Federal level since 1946. They existed at a community level far before that into the 19th century. I can tell you from my own community that there are programs that extend beyond just this program as well when you factor in state-level support and charities.
No one said those programs don’t exist. It was pointed out that people want them not to. They’ve been whining about “handouts” including school lunches for decades. Why are you distracting from that fact?
Yeah so? Christianity if practiced in a Christlike way would be fine. We don’t need to relentlessly specify that today’s Christians are full of shit. We’re just calling them how they identify themselves
Most “Christians” today are secularists which is why they are so morally pliable. There is no right or wrong in the post-modern world only rabid pursuit of self. This naturally has consequences. The less Christian the United States becomes the more this will increase.
Dude you’re insane. Christianity is not even close to what’s held morality together. In fact it’s been used as an excuse to be horrifically shitty over and over. Crusades as one old example
Atheists /secularists do kind and selfless things all the time. And again, if Christians practice what they preach they’re good for the world, mostly.
it’s been used as an excuse to be horrifically shitty over and over
Just because something is used as an excuse to do something bad doesn’t mean that the actions that were taken are justified within Christianity. One has nothing to do with the other. I could identify as X and then do Y even if Y is explicitly forbidden by X. Does that mean that X is responsible for Y? No it doesn’t. The person is responsible. They are also a hypocrite.
Atheists /secularists do kind and selfless things all the time.
That’s fine but Atheists and Secularists borrow their understanding of good and evil from Christianity. There’s no objective moral standard for atheists and secularists.
Can you try making sense?

In that case it sounds like the less Christian America becomes the more people feel it’s morally okay suspend programs that serve the underprivileged.

Christians are super prejudiced against poor and foreigners in the US.
That’s an unjustified claim.
