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.

Approximately 81% of Americans believe in God, so 63% of food banks being religious doesn't seem like a high proportion to me, given that. Could it be much of the difference in charitable giving can be accounted for by numbers and counting the churches themselves as objects of charity?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
