Originally posted by Sparko View PostWell as someone who has been on welfare and been homeless, I think she has some pretty good experience with how the system works or does not. You were questioning her qualifications and knowledge of the subject, it appeared. I don't always agree with Teal on social matters, but she does have bonafides in the area. She also used to work in the public health area, working as an aid in social clinics.Last edited by seer; 07-20-2018, 02:31 PM.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope.

Originally posted by seer View PostHey she started it, that what I said soooo upset her that she could not even respond. And all I did was state a fact. And I also spent ten years as a group home manager, caring for those whom no one else would. So I too know how the system works...

Originally posted by Sparko View PostThey used to have laws against loitering and vagrancy. If you were caught hanging out on the street, or in front of a business, they could arrest you or fine you (most of the time I think they just ran them off). Probably still can but don't bother. Panhandling is actually against the law in many places too.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law.

Originally posted by seer View PostI did not say, nor do I believe, that people like Teal should be jailed. But if you are shooting up in public parks, crapping on the side walks, or doing smash and grabs , public drunkenness, etc... yes you need to be arrested. There a real increase in crime from the homeless community.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law.

Originally posted by Sparko View Postright now they have to have case workers, inspectors, department heads, buildings to work in, cleaning and maintenance staff to care for the building, accounting personnel, equipment and utility costs, and on and on. So by the time a donated dollar gets to the person needing it, he gets a penny.
And Churches need that. The last thing we need is the money going to some insane, hell-bound, Creflo Dollar type "Christian" who's using the money to build a bigger house for himself and on a jet plane.
