Count the Dead by the Millions

I can't reveal what I give because it is not what we are supposed to do.

The Bible discourages bragging and self-praise, emphasizing that praise should come from others rather than from oneself. Proverbs 27:2 states, "Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips". Additionally, Jeremiah 9:23-24 encourages boasting in understanding and knowing God rather than in personal achievements like wisdom or wealth.

Moonglow, I'm impressed.

Zero. Pretty obvious. You somehow think the govt doing something covers you. It doesn’t

Actually, it does as nearly 20 percent of taxes goes for charity, called 'social programs'. Every taxpayer can take credit for their contribution.

The Bible does warn of famine and starvation in the end times, the 'black horseman of the apocalypse', taught in church, not in Sunday school.

We had to memorize the Bible in Sunday School.

No, govt is not charity

And taxes aren’t “contributions”.

Did god make any mention of sharing your trannny comic books?

Why do you feel a need to impose your perversions on others?

The only person I know who knows about Tranny comic books are you.

My Grandmother was a theologian and music director at church. She would have been a minister, but they didn't let women do that.

Moonglow, I'm impressed.

Koppel talked all around the problem. No surprise. The problem is that USAID is an apparatus that enriches everyone along the supply chains, leaving little for those who the program is intended to help.

 

[Woodznutz]

And taxes aren’t “contributions”.

Tax funded contributions for the needy are charity.

I thought it was all unbiased and not particularly partisan.

I seriously doubt most accusations of "fraud", this is about sending money to Muslim countries in Africa, as well as Pakistan and Afghanistan. Trump clearly states he doesn't want to send money to countries that "hate us", but the deperately poor are the ones benefitting from this aid, it clearly goes where it is supposed to.

Trump's accusations are specious and unproven.
