Okay, if your upper middle class church is sitting in the middle of the main area of HUD housing in your town, an area so poor that during the summer, where there is no school lunch, the Methodists from the other side of town bring sack lunches and cereal to all the kiddoes, what is a great way to raise money?
Can you say competitive eating? Like a hot dog eating contest for the church elite leaders? Which leader can eat the most hot dogs in ten minutes? For those of you keeping score at home, the record, from the annual Nathan's Famous July 4th Gluttony Fest is 53 hot dogs in 12 minutes. The pros practice with methods familiar to most bulimics.
So, we have a demonstration of waste, gluttony and all that in an area where people go to bed hungry. What kind of message are we sending here???
