They were fortunate that it was a McDonalds and not a megachurch.

I remember a pastor installed water sprinkler around his church because homeless were sleeping around the church.

In Georgia state or something like that

Yep. Live in Georgia. Tons of megachurches down here, all of them with various scandals and rich ass pastors.

“Free Chapel” is a multimillion dollar company. My elderly MIL who lives on social security donates $100/mo to them to “help the children” and goes without food if she has to to afford the donation because “they need it more than I do”

(We can’t get power of attorney over her, we’ve tried, Georgia sucks)

Also, looks like the sprinkler one was at St Mary’s in San Francisco. The Georgia scandal most recently is a megachurch pastor who stepped down when it came out that he was soliciting (male) minors for sex. Love that for us.

Was this an "in general" sort of comment or did some shitty megachurch do that with this specific storm?

I will say, none of the megachurches in my areas would ever do society a favor.

Seriously. What a world. Is it any wonder why people aren’t going to church anymore?

Keeping all them lights on is expensive.
