yay! good job everyone involved. keep donating whatever you can, and we have to get more people to donate. great publicity for us, and for a good cause.
“DO YOU THINK… giving can be faith-free and still have “values?”"
What kind of question is that? I didn’t know giving can have ‘values’. If they meant “Can the giving of atheists have ‘value’?”, as in, does the charitable contribution of atheists count, I’d tell them to look at the numbers.
It is just sad that apparantly for the writer you are “lost” when an atheist or pastafarian…..
Beautiful. Simply Beautiful.
Very nice! And USA Today is a serious newspaper, not the caliber of Pulitzer-wielding newspapers but still pretty famous even outside the States. The publicity should help a lot.
I decided to join the cause, and made 4 loans. My husband and I normally give to several organizations through out the year, and after reading about Kiva, decided to put our money for charities in it. Too bad for the cancer, heart, and everything association, but this way I can see my money in action.
It helped a bit that Kiva sorts the list of Religious Congregations’ by number of loans rather than value… Anywayz, this is excellent news and positions ourselves as the highest donating non-violent religion.
What an extremely condescending article.
It’s basically saying “Wow, who’d have thunk it? Those godless heathen bastard atheists are being kind!”
To really help “the last and the least” do you have to focus on “the lost” as well?
