Here's how it is:
These particular homeless that we have a problem with are generally drunk, or more interested in being drunk than sober, put my kids in danger, and therefore are not welcome in our establishment. They come into our kitchens when we are not present in the church--but because we are a church, our doors are open--and they eat the food meant for children in the church. They trash our bathrooms when we are not there.
I am not trying to put the boundaries of society on them. If they do not wish to be a part of society, I wish them well, but if they do not wish to be a part of society--WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING IN A CHURCH?! I am not interested in reforming homeless that do not wish to have a home.
In my past experience, I came into contact with a homeless person around my age that frequented a local forum and more or less used it as a place to find places to crash. I found this out the hard way one New Year's Eve when he showed up to my party, ended up crashing on my couch, and stayed there until 4pm the next day. He was one of those homeless that I characterized as unwilling to work for The Man.
