    I’ve seen some Christian run homeless shelters that are basically just there to proselytize… and I’ve seen ones that are irreligious in appearance and service and just funded by Christians. I detest the proselytizing just as much as any other devote agnostic, but I’d like more information before judging this orphanage either way.

        Some even demand that you don’t seek employment (so they can exploit your unpaid labor indefinitely).

        I’m gonna’ need a citation for that one.

        The place where I live requires unpaid labor too. I don’t get why Mom has such a problem with Doritos dust. Let it lie, I say!

        Absolutely 100% true for some, probably most, Christian run homeless shelters. Untrue for some (likely a minority) of homeless shelters. I’ve got no qualms about shitting on shitty Christians being asshats - I just have a problem generalizing this to everything.
