A similar op-ed piece on this same subject can be found in Monday's edition of the UK Guardian newspaper at this location: http://www.guardian.co.uk/print/0,3858,5283079-103390,00.html Given that the author, Roy Hattersley, is an atheist, he makes a very compelling and persuasive case that faith and charity go hand in hand.
Yes it was nice to see Scientologists doing their part as well as Pastafarians.
Now...let's see the "religions" build new homes, hire the disenfranchised at living wages, let the lower income people move in next door, etc.
What I see was Human Beings reacting to a tragedy. Some of them just happened to be part of a religious organization, and not necessarily the religion that this Administration is trying to force down people's throats. (Oh..I don't think Jesus would approve of nobid contracts, no living wages, etc., either)
