While this is true....the organizations in question are not taxed as I am....they exist (according to them) to do exactly what they are doing....and many people, myself included, donate time and money to them in order for these things to happen. Perhaps I was unclear in my stipulation that ANY nonprofit(read tax exempt) organization would garner the same lack of support from me in this situation. I have no issue with charity helping those in need....I do however, have an issue with my paying for it, without my concent. I will admit to a fear of religion creaping into our Government...but honestly, can you seriously blame a non-christian for worrying about these things.
