As much as I'd like to bash the conservatives and their damned churches, I don't see a problem with this.
A business offers to shelter thousands of evacuees. They do -- their shit gets torn apart.
FEMA says -- hey, look.. these people's shit got ruined when they took in evacuees. We, being an Emergency Management Agency, could give them a little money in order to offset what they spent helping us.
Its not a churches "job" to take people in.. a church is created by people so they can worship what they want. They have no obligation to help people or anything even close.. just because they DO offer help does not mean they were supposed to.
Being compensated for damages caused by generousity is certainly not a crime.
