Angr, I -have- answered the hypothetical. Even when it looks, especially from the view of a hungry person, that religious charities and direct food charities are a good thing. Objectively speaking and by the numbers - they are not. They actually exacerbate hunger and poverty. I do not want it to be this way, I have worked for years in this sector not because I thought it was this way....this is just me, as I said, spilling the beans about organizations that give away beans.
Want to change it? Don't give a food pantry canned goods. Give it cash money to build a walk in. Even the charities themselves are better served by cash infusion. You'll still be a part of the perpetuation of the problem, but you'd at least be closer to doing whatever you think religious food pantries are doing.
