1. Get the money, preach the vote
that is what it amounts to.

The president that gives them the money, gets to be the one who is preached about from the pulpit.In glowing terms, of course.

It is a recipe for government control over any particular religion, which I am sure, all those religions would love to have. Right?

They do not realize the quicksand they have sucked themselves into. If they accept government welfare, they are invariably obliged and invariably shakled. In this case, they willingly shakle themselves to George Bush and his fascism.

and they think it would help them spread the word of Jesus,as ordered, who said render unto Caesar, etc. because by this welfare money, it has freed up other monies for them to send their missionaries to Afganistan, Iraq and any other place, to disrespect the religion of those in that culture.


They get my money--I demand to see where and how they spent it.

Further, why should I pay to have a religion fostered, in spite of the fact they provide food to the hungry, who first must pledge alligance to that religion, and to that president? Thre are no restrictions on proselytizing at all, on those who receive this money.

This is a corruption, and if it is not now, it soon will be, mark my words.
