Good for him. Apparently, others from other faiths are welcome to use it and donate various articles. I wonder why they don't bother. I take that back.....I don't wonder at all.

my people are destroyed for lack of understanding.
There are those in America who would utterly remove the
foundation to the political house erected by Franklin and his peers. IT Franklin,that old Deist,never far from the truth, who proposed the Convention had remained divided by
petty self interest because they had neglected God. Franklin insisted they would suceed no better at the political building than the Builders of Babel unless they
secured God's concurring aid. Yet today there are godless
infidels and atheists who would insist we have a godless
COnstitution and a godless State.

Leading the movement for unity among religions is Charles Haynes, former director of the First Liberty Institute and "senior scholar for religious freedom" at the Freedom Forum. He serves on the Board of Directors of the Character Education Partnership (see Character Training For Global Citizenship) and edited the acclaimed book, Finding Common Ground: A First Amendment Guide to Religion and Public Education. His popular inter-faith program has joined such unlikely partners as:

These strange alliances alone should raise questions about Charles Haynes' First Amendment Guide. So should his membership on The Pluralism Project's Advisory Board, which includes Wiccan author Margot Adler and Professor Diana Eck, an authority on Hinduism who chairs Harvard's Committee on the Study of Religion. 

This info is blatantly stolen from a website that I can no longer find. Sorry.
