Samaritans purse: bigotry is important to disaster relief, apparently
I’m in north carolina and wanting to volunteer to help with disaster relief on the west part of the state. Samaritans Purse is doing work and seeking volunteers. I thought… they’re Evangelical, but…i can get past it, they’re doing the work.
So I sign up, pick a slot, go through this whole process… the last step is i have to read and agree to their “what we believe” statements. First, Biblical inerrancy. Ok. Well, no, I don’t agree to that, but again, whatever, I can get past it.
A few points down – marriage is between one man and one woman so many thoughts. #1, if you truly thought the Bible was infallible, you’d know biblical marriage isn’t between one man and one woman, so your values actually contradict each other. But #2, more importantly, WHAT THE F does same gender marriage have to do with disaster relief???
My queer ass won’t be volunteering for them. It makes me concerned about the type of relief they provide. Do they turn down queer folks who need help???
