They won't. It is the natural result of believing in magical solutions.
Right, that explains the complete lack of Christian charities. Oh, wait...

Agreed.
With the exception of the Salvation Army, afaik. They provide bed, bath, and bread when neccessary but won't raise the subject unless you ask or give them an occassion to do so.
Except that they dont always provide bed, bath and bread...and typically employ bums at less than minimum wage to fix furniture for profit in their stores.
