Quote:Yes, and you said that it's the work that's important, and differences in beliefs are petty by comparison - yet all you do is bitch about the organization's beliefs and ignore the work it does.

The work is important, which is why I'm so irked at an organization turning away folks who could help with that over petty ideological differences and some vague notion that you're being "targeted" by atheists, according to the woman in charge.

Quote:It's extremely common for groups to be based on common beliefs, and as noted the atheist group does likewise.

Except the atheist group also accepts help from christian groups, didn't go around badmouthing all christians based upon the actions of this one woman, and didn't spew a bunch of ignorant, baffling drivel about how christians are uncharitable and working for the devil afterward.

Understand, I'm not mad that this is a charity. I'm mad that this particular charity bit off its own nose to spite its face, and then had the gall to turn around and point the finger at the very group that was trying to help them in the first place.

This is an issue about this one shitheaded woman, not the entire organization. It might also be about the members of it that didn't see fit to call their leader on her egregious bullshit, but that's neither here nor there, and don't you dare try to characterize this as us atheists beating down on the concept of charity, John.
