I was watching a show on TV that talked about all the Christian missions and food pantries and such; the Red Cross, the Salvation Army, the Star of Hope missions for the poor, etc.
So I started wondering if perhaps the show was being one-sided in not mentioning all the other non-religious missions-type places. And that just wouldn't be fair, after all, anyone who helps the poor and destitute deserves a mention!
I looked in the phone book, looked online for local places, nothing! I went through the dozens of places just here in my city, and all of them were religiously affiliated.
IF I were an atheist who was on the down-and-out and needed help, where would I turn for help? Is there some major organization I'm not aware of?
