Doesn't anybody else besides me think it odd that some folks criticize a church and its members for their unbiased help in such a time of need, especially when there is a shortage of people in this country who are willing to help? I've seen these Scientology volunteers in action and I've seen then on tv. Who cares what their motives are? What I saw was yellow shirted people talking with victims and doing things that gave them relief. I saw smiles on the faces of those who were previously upset or worried. What's not right about that?
I am certain that Scientology people "show up" at disaster area only to lend assistance. I saw no recruiting taking place,as others who posted here would have you believe. The govt. officials at the Pentagon supported the actions of these volunteers. As did the victims of Katrina, as did the NYC police and fire depts.
