Perhaps you didn’t read the parable of the talents?

We do spend billions on relief efforts. We also don’t blast our trumpets letting everyone know we are doing it. Locals will tell you in Haiti, in south America, in Japan...anywhere there is a disaster, our church is one of the first responders.

I don't think so ben. In Jan. 2006, from the Church PR department, (Deseret News Publishing Company): Edgley said, "that since 1984, the LDS Church has donated nearly $750 million in cash and goods to people in need in more than 150 countries." That averages to $37.5 mil per year. Compare that to 6+ BILLION spent on the mall in SLC. . .

LOL...that's hilarious.

Why do you don these tee shirts advertising your presence at a disaster?

And why does the PR machine immediately issue press releases boasting of mormon presence in every disaster?
