"Thy Liberty in Law"

A tenet of my religious faith is, "We believe . . . in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law." Adherence to this tenet doesn't mean I must like or agree with all the laws.
For example, I don't believe money earned by hard-working citizens should be freely distributed to able-bodied citizens who are not required to work for it. This destructive pattern breeds dependence and even contempt from the very citizens whose lives it is designed to bless. If welfare recipients were required to participate in continuing education, citizens on both sides of the dole could ultimately benefit.
