1. Catholic Charities is one of the few RCC organizations that prefers to convert through example

rather than following other models that use oc\coecion by withholding vital services until lip service is obtained.

News flash: conversion through bullying DOES NOT WORK. It's also one of the reasons I've never tryied deconverting believers.

Plus, it's unkind, something Cathoic Charities seems to realize. Give people food and clothing and as much medical care as you can, then let them start asking questions about why you're doing it. That actually does work from time to time.

2. As much as I dislike the white Baptist nutcases, when I was at Katrina with the Red Cross,

I had to admire the Baptist group there. They cooked the food that we delivered and that meant they were working hours before we got going at 8AM. They helped us load the food and unload the containers when we returned in the evening. They never promoted nor talked about religion - they just worked liked dogs, never seeing the thankful faces of the appreciative people we served.

3. Excellent point.
