Church Evicts Homeless Shelter for Not Making Starving Homeless Pray Before Christmas Dinner

The FAITH Foundation’s shelter is now as homeless as the people it helps. Following a dispute with their host church, the First Reformed Church of Hackensack, the foundation must search for a new location to host it’s homeless shelter.

The dispute centered around the shelter’s Christmas Dinner; before the dinner church officials demanded that there be a sermon and carols before anyone was fed. The shelter’s director, Robin Reilly, said fuck it and started feeding people before the sermon because most of them hadn’t eaten for 24 hours.

In retribution for feeding the homeless without getting their Jesus’ worth out of them, the church threw the Faith Foundation’s shelter out on it’s ass. Hey Jesus is the reason for the season, all this giving crap isn’t what Christmas is all about - It’s about JESUS not feeding hobos.

Mad props to you Robin! Lots of luck finding a new place to host your shelter, I hope it isn’t too hard to find one that isn’t going to try to starve the god into people.

    I guess helping the needy isn’t enough for some people.

    I wish it were harder for me to believe, but it’s true. It’s something people forget when they talk about how great Evangelical charity is, they don’t care about helping people - they care about converting them. Of course there are also a fuckton Christians like Robin there who really care about helping people too. It’s sad, but you have to take their charity with a grain of salt.

    Nonono, you don’t get it. Atheistic heathens don’t have the RIGHT to any of the amazing food that God made. So it’s important to verify there’s none of those amongst the particular homeless folks who happen to be there before passing out the food.
