    Holy shit, I hate religion as much as the next guy but the one time a church is actually doing something good they get strapped with this bullshit.

      It’s more than one time. A good number of churches actually run soup kitchens, donate to those in need, and are inclusive to all. I’m not religious, I just feel like these kinds of churches aren’t as well represented in media. That being said, just like people, churches can be as charitable as they are intolerant.

        I haven’t seen many churches actually doing these things. Most churches are NOT inclusive to all and only a small portion of them run soup kitchens.

          I helped my grandma run an area soup kitchen for a few days as a kid. Just like homeless shelters most people don’t notice them because they don’t need that service. Shit I had no idea we did that before I actually helped out

        Even so, a lot of those “good” churches will still promote the mentality that Republicans are on their side.
