My wife and I fund an entire non profit ministry in Uganda……among other things ….what do you do besides pat your own ass about contributions to FR?
I didn’t think so. Those who mention stuff like this in open forum are almost aways (sic) blowhard phony pharisees.

Well, pat yourselves on the backs. Betcha that just stokes your ego doesn't it...
And pompous egotistical anal-orifices feel the need to brag about what they do for whom, while demanding similar accountability from everyone else. The one that seems to be patting his ass about his giving, importance, and 'better-than-youness' seems to be you. In simple words: you have no idea what I do, who I give to, how often, or why. And it is none of your business. And it will stay that way. As would be similar information about your personal giving if you had not chosen for whatever reason to divulge it. I note with interest that you seem to be blowing the trumpets in the marketplace and enlarging your phylacteries though.
While on the subject of blowhard phony Pharisees, you would do well to heed the words of the Holy Spirit through the pen of the Apostle Paul when he wrote his Second Epistle to the Church in Corinth. You will find in chapter 10, verse 12 a fitting commentary on your elevated opinion of yourself...
2 Corinthians 10:12-13New International Version (NIV) 12 We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. 13 We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us...
The discussion was carried in open forum because that is where YOU chose to wax abrasive. YOU are the one who chose to respond with a personal attack. Now you go hide behind FReepmail because you cannot sustain a logical argument in open forum without resorting to personal attack and innuendo and you know the possible consequences of continuing that line.
Then... you get your thong in a wad because someone does not share the exalted opinion of yourself that you do. I am not impressed that you ghost wrote someone's book, be it Hillarys or Obamas or Sean Hannitys. I don't care if you write for Blaze or Alex Jones or PJ Media or the NY Times. Your demeanor on this forum leaves much to be desired by way of interpersonal interaction and that personality or the consensus of opinions about you would not change even should you find a book of your writ on the BestSellerList..
For the purposes of the discussion that had been continuing on this open forum, you can find out if I donate to FR by visiting the donor lists that periodically appear on the FReepathon thread. You know, the same lists on which your name does not seem to appear. I allow that to happen since on nearly every FReepathon someone comes along bloviating about how Jim Rob could do it better if only he would listen to me... (all the while offering excuses as to why they themselves do not donate, and thus remain FReeploaders. Much as you appear to be. ) It would be wrong of me to suggest others donate if I myself refuse. That is not Pharisaical, that is only right.
YOU have chosen to elevate that discussion into the realm of personal attack (see here for starters.) We will keep any and all future discussion open or we will not have any further contact.
Do not FReepmail me again.
