Christmas Eve is a time for giving back, but it's not just Christians who are volunteering their time and volunteers with American Muslim Voice Foundation say it's important for people of all faiths to chip in.

....the American Muslim Voice who served 1,000 dinners at Loaves & Fishes. Yet, the organization's president, Khalid Saeed, says 175 wanted to come.

"So we had to tell people stay home," Saeed said.

This is the fifth year they have volunteered on Christmas Eve, a time that Saeed says does have religious significance for Muslims.

How well would it be received in the Muslim world for Christians to be openly helping impoverished muslims during Ramadan?

“Still a Protestant’’. Catholic here, of the Irish-American type. Catholic schools of the 1960’s . Nuns in penguin suits, Sister Mary Jack Dempsey with Hail Marys and a left hook that would flatten Evander Holifield . Never going to change me, ever. Merry Christmas.

Here is free food; feel free to visit our religion. The Krishnas used to give away free food at the University of Georgia Memorial Hall Plaza. 1970. Good Food. Goofy religion. I did not convert. Still a Protestant.
The Scientologists pulled a similar stunt immediately after 9/11 They set up their cute little yellow tents near Ground Zero manned with "autidors" with their silly "E-meters" ready to give aid and comfort brainwash vulnerable people traumatized by the terrorist attacks.

ISIS feeds poor Syrians,
Kinda like the original Black Panthers who's primary objective supposedly was to provide free school lunches for the poor Black kids in Oakland. When a dear friend of David Horowitz, Betty VanPatter who effectively was the panther's bookkeeper questioned some financial discrepancies she disappeared, and her remains were dredged out of SF Bay a month later with too many stab wounds for the ME to determine an exact count. This incident is what caused Mr. Horowitz to change his leftist views.

And the Christian/Catholic community does this every year and in a million ways, and no articles about them.

More information propagada from horrible liberals.
