I mean they are hardly the meek who shall inherit the Earth and the way that ilk treats the "least of us" that Christ talks about is sickening. I get that these organizations do significant charity work, but no matter what good those do, they support a regime and past regimes that have directly caused many deaths and much suffering through no health care so they can make a few million more a year and perhaps take a few more trips on their GulfStream V.
And their churches get tax exempt status while they preach politics at the pulpit...etc. We agree on this stuff, strand.
