Looking at CNBC news the other day I saw Billy Graham walking away from a reporter when asked, Was it true that the only people to receive aid from his church had to convert? (Aid to Equador.)
I thought it should have appeared on CNN as well as other news programs. Just wishing I guess.
A better one was while leaving a chain store there was someone collecting for aid to Equador on March 17, 2001 and I was asked to contribute -- to which I asked, Who is going to receive the aid? The answer was some church. I then asked was it only members of that church that would receive aid -- and I was told yes. So much for aid to people. I guess if you go to the wrong church or not at all you fend for yourself.
