Maybe controversial - Religion IS bad, but.....

RE: Maybe controversial - Religion IS bad, but.....
@Thumpalumpacus


Charitably lazy? I admitted seculars do plenty of charity if you read my posts. I say in my experience the christians did more. For example:


Quote: "You just seem uninformed because there are many secular charity organizations that help people and win Nobel prizes like UNICEF,

           Doctors without Borders, World Food Program, Humanists International, Save the Children, Children International, Oxfam, Amnesty

           International, Kiva, etc."

Quote: "True also, however still not convinced there are more of them."


Evidence? I'm new here. I can't post links.

But a quick google search shows:

According to a 2022 Survey 63 percent of all food banks were religious.

Additionally, in the states surveyed, half of the religious congregations gave time and money to both christian and secular food banks.

Food banks don't have lots of employees in my experience, and with half the congregations responding. I'd say they're well represented.


Next, everything you said about what you did at the food bank can be said of the christian employees as well. Or is christians being as dumb as they are,
and with everything wrong with the church not enough? They are messed up. Still I don't think you want to say that the christians you worked with were
a bunch of evil, screwed up bastards. Must we add bias to the facts.


My posts smell? Well, I wouldn't want to smell. I'm thinking maybe I should roll over and agree with everything instead of partially agreeing

with what's said on this forum.


So much for being a free thinker like atheists convinced me to be when I was younger.


You 'put your finger on it' and wont tip your hand yet? Great can't wait to hear that.
