Not a believer, are there any passages on dealing with clearly useless people. The type of people whose opinion of you is determined if you did the last thing they asked you for, with no regard for all the shit you’ve already done for them? On liars and social parasites. Did Jesus have his own version of “He who does not work does not eat”.
I find it hard to believe Jesus told his followers to be doormats and then whipped a bunch of gamblers.
It goes on and on and on about laziness. A Christian supporting someone's laziness would be supporting someone living in sin, and therefore forbidden. The poor in the context of the bible would be those unable for whatever reason like children, elderly, disabled. Like I mentioned below not even single women count.
Liars and social parasites being the same. I'll quote this because a lot here will like it: "For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group." That's Titus 1, there's a whole paragraph most would like.
I grew up a believer, sort of became disinterested until I read the bible myself a ton and realized there's so little about being doormats in it, and really is stuffed with things that if we did the world would be better. I wouldn't say I'm a devoted churchgoing person and maybe that's to my fault, maybe it's not. I'm certainly not one of those from that pic throwing my hands in the air to look all faithful, because well, going around letting everyone know how especially Christian you are would be sinful too.

The Bible says he who doesn’t work shouldn’t eat
