Epicurus riddle.
RE: Epicurus riddle.
Irony of ironies, Chad.

The least objectionable thing I posted is what you objected to. Yikes.

Try looking up Mother Teresa.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

References, please. To my knowledge, no Christian makes aid to the needy contingent on conversion. You are spouting hate.

I am sure from the point of view of many Christians they don't want to view it that way. But again, regardless of what they actually do in person, the advertisement is still there.

Funny how the "Christian Children's Fund" no longer calls themselves that and now goes with "Child Fund".

When you type in "Christian Children's Fund" into a google search the website address names leave out the Christian part.

If you cant get away with direct marketing, you move to indirect marketing. Not bribing the person in person, still does not change the fact it is still an attempt at PR having nothing to do with the reality that you don't need to be a Christian to be charitable.

Now just on Facebook,  guy named  Rob Mcwilliams posted this list of atheist charities who feed the homeless.
