I always put a few dollar bills, sometimes a five, in the bucket. By the time Christmas is over i probably end up giving about $100 to the bell ringers.
I just hope it goes to the economically needy and not to proliferation of the Salvation Army's religious beliefs:
The Salvation Army deplores society's ready acceptance of abortion, which reflects insufficient concern for vulnerable persons, including the unborn. (Psalms 82:3-4) When an unwanted pregnancy occurs, The Salvation Army advises that the situation be accepted and that the pregnancy be carried to term, and offers supportive help and assistance with planning.
Scripture forbids sexual intimacy between members of the same sex. The Salvation Army believes, therefore, that Christians whose sexual orientation is primarily or exclusively same-sex are called upon to embrace celibacy as a way of life.
The Salvation Army affirms the New Testament standard of marriage, which is the loving union for life of one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others.
Kinda pathetic to post the amount of your charitable contributions on a forum.
Most of all I like bulldozers and dirt
Yes, attack the messenger instead of addressing the message.
Were you upset that the SA was exposed for what it is?
Wait until I expose the AA. That'll probably hit home for you.
The ASPCA opposes hunting and then kills 3 million dogs in the United States every year. That's like the Catholic church opposing child abuse.
I'm a responsible dog owner. My dog won't die because of my irresponsibility, unlike the irresponsible and ignorant dog owners who think their dog "wants to run free"
I usually don't donate to those people. But last year I was walking out fo a store and the guy playing the horn switched at that moment from playing "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" to playing the Imperial March from Star Wars.
I gave him a ten.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No one is entitled to their own facts.
I got that far, and then realized what a lying bull****ter you are.
On the small chance that you're NOT a lying bull****ter, and, that this is really true, then you're just an ass-hole for telling us how much you give to charity.
Lying bull****ter - or ass-hole? Which are you?
1. Do you realize it's not always just one person manning those buckets? I've seen as many as 10 carolers and bell ringers in one location.
2. Do you also realize that one can easily run across a half dozen of those buckets in one night out?
3. Do you realize that you make about as much sense as a one-legged man at a butt-kicking contest?
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No one is entitled to their own facts.
One thing I don't care for is when the cashier asks if you would like to make a donation to this or that. You would think they would realize some people shop more than once a week. They sort of put you on the spot.
