But, 1: Happy Birthday a day late to Eisenman 2: Brad, you can't go assuming I have something against genetically altered food - I actually never really gave it too much thought but am in general fine with it 3: The questions of hiring and such for churches were more, as I understood them, focused on other positions. I don't know where everyone's from, but I know that unlike where I'm from, New England, out West there are HUGE churches of every dominitation with ginormous staff of often hundreds of people. The question is, what about one of these churches who refuses to hire a black or a gay person - what does that say about how they're going to help the needy with Federal money? The more basic question is, though, why should religious groups be favored at all in this way? If our "president" were truly concerned about social welfare, and not sucking right-wing sausage, wouldn't he be saying, well, no one likes my Give it to the Right money distribution plan, let's just improve social welfare? Of course not. perma link |
