Christians are more likely to be left wing

So the Daily Mail have an article today saying people who are christians are more left wing and are more sympathetic to issues such as immigration and equality according to the think tank Demos While it pains me to share this link ( I despise the Daily Mail ) I do actually see their point. I'm a christian and am a member of the Socialist Party. I've always believed in socialism ,I believe the poor and the vulnerable should be protected, I believe there is far to much capitalism and commercialism in our society and this has overtaken the values in which Jesus taught .. Whats more important having the new iPad or spending time with your family , friends and making memories which can last a life time . I believe we are all equal rich, poor, old , young , disabled , able bodied etc . Obviously I understand we need some form of capitalism otherwise businesses would go under which would impact on consumerism and the money we have coming into our country however I believe this should benefit 100 % of the people by using that money wisely not 1 % of people who are at the top creating an elitist two tier society of the haves and have nots
