I watched I Daniel Blake and it rang so true. I spent a large part of my life battling with the benefits system on behalf of my patients. The Tory desire to see everyone in work (in spite of disabilities that make it untenable) has made the whole situation a disgrace. There is a basic assumption that every claimant is a scrounger till proven otherwise. And consequently the process of claiming can be totally humiliating. You need top be in the know and have all the buzzwords at your fingertips in order to wade through and come out the other end.
The process is also dehumanising for those working in the system.
annie - I agree that anyone and everyone, regardless of faith or absence thereof, can try to live decent Samaritan-like lives and that we all fail at times - faith or no faith. My concern is not about individual Christians (or members of other faiths) who, like us all, fail at times, but about the institutions of those religions that fail on a mass scale, and indeed cause misery to so many. Churches and religious institutions should follow their own teachings.
