This idiot conflates gullibleness and hand-outs t- which often cause more harm than good - o charity, while real charity involves giving to reputable organizations who provide actual goods and services.
In other words, she’s a clueless leftdolt...
TOTAL GARBAGE. Having lived through the tornadoes here in Alabama last April, I can tell you 100% that one of the very first groups to respond and the last to leave were the local churches. Hundreds of people from our area churches worked thousands of hours aiding people, feeding people, assisting in rebuilding homes, providing the needs for people. Total garbage. People of faith around here know that we ain’t stingy! Stupid liberals. They are only NOT stingy with other people’s money!
I think people see through these contrived agenda driven “studies” that have been coming out over the past year that slam people of faith and conservatives.
You may be sure that this is NOT science and the the DemonRATS and the MainSCREAM media are behind it.
In the studies they gave them hypothetical money to give away. That is what libtards do, give away other people’s money.
Do the real live money test from the tax returns and you will see the difference. What an idiotic study method!
I must confess, I am more stingy than the godless freaks I run into; I have children to feed, while they have birthday parties for their pets...
Complete and utter bull shit! No, I won’t edit!
What you said!
Well, just look at the charity the liberals give and decide for yourself. Liberals are the worst when it comes to help. They support a plantation to keep everyone.
People of faith are a large majority of Americans.
Thus it is entirely expected that the majority of charity in America would be from (and often to) the religious.
The scientific community is inherently biased towards meaningful PROPORTIONAL analysis rather than a simple minded statement that most charitable giving in a nation that is majority Christian is from Christian people and to Christian founded organizations.
Do you understand proportionality?
If most people incarcerated are white - in a nation that is majority white - is that noteworthy?
Or is it more noteworthy that a population group that is some 12% of the population makes up over 30% of those that are incarcerated?
Stupid liberals. They are only NOT stingy with other peoples money!
In the second analysis, 101 adults watched one of two videos. One was neutral. The other was heartrending, showing portraits of impoverished children. Next, the participants were each given a hypothetical $10 and directed to give any of it to a stranger.So I guess the atheists were only hypothetically charitable.
Please note they were being charitable because they were asked how they would give away other people’s money, not their own.
This is on the same level as the “studies” that show that all conservatives are less intelligent than liberals. It’s an agenda driven study to show what great people the people that did the study are and what rotten people those that they don’t like are. Kind of an expensive way to justify their “feelings” about us and nothing more. Our world is filled with nothing but junk science now days, global warming, save the whales, there are no differences between men and women, etc. It’s made the term “scientist” a joke.
First: don't think this has anything to do with the "scientific community." The article called it a scientific survey, but it's nothing more than sociology hogwash. The only thing remotely resembling science was that the silly questions and biased premises were tabulated on a "scientific" calculator.
What you end up with is statistically-accurate meaninglessness.
P.S. Sociologists like to flatter themselves that their “discipline” is a science. It’s neither.
Every study of IRS data shows that Christians are MUCH more generous than the secular population. Liberals are screwing around here.
