Because THAT faith-based organization might do some actual good.<BR/><BR/>I'm wondering if there could be some follow-the-money investigation to see where some of this funding goes, and who might be connected with the membership of these "faith-based" organizations, and which of these "faith-based" organizations might have donated significant portions of their coffers to who, and so forth.Clio Bluestockinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14285486658334618048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-84010170924258795972007-06-26T12:49:00.000-05:002007-06-26T12:49:00.000-05:00Both Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were stron...Both Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were strong supporters of a definite separation of church and state but for different reasons. Jefferson believed to mix the two would corrupt government and Madison believed it would corrupt church. I bet they're both rolling over in their graves right now seeing their fears have come to pass.BarefootCajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960018125640941576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-83564522783244572162007-06-26T12:34:00.000-05:002007-06-26T12:34:00.000-05:00I was appalled but not surprised by that verdict. ...I was appalled but not surprised by that verdict. Before Bush, there were religious groups who had government grants, the difference was they had to follow the same rules as any other organization. Now, many of them don't.Maya's Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12183715043200608144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-4230178810110139162007-06-26T12:30:00.000-05:002007-06-26T12:30:00.000-05:00I hardily deeply, AND fully with all the points yo...I hardily deeply, AND fully with all the points you made Shark - Fu. On all levels. <BR/><BR/>This IS yet another, a major wrong turn for this country. Big Time. And the Supreme idjits just made sure we stay OFF course.<BR/><BR/> I happen to be a medically retired social worker, who paid for my degree, had to have license, a code of ethics to be a certified a trained professional.<BR/><BR/> This Masters degree, was an investment for ME and MY clients. All people who seek services in health care settings both psychiatric and medical, deserve a qualified providers. Especially when the programs recieve Government money. OUR tax dollars.<BR/><BR/> We the people have NO quality control with faith based iniatives programs.<BR/><BR/> It undermines service standards, as you say the "outcomes" and also dammit, the worth in the market place dammit of the degrees one might obtain. This has a ripple effect too. Keeping wages lower for the lesser trained or psuedo clinicians. Its insidious. <BR/><BR/> Who needs a degree and all ,when the only qualification needed is to "be a believer" ?. And saleries forget about it. Quality of care and service delivery..forget about that too. The whole thing as you say is a giant scam. <BR/> <BR/><BR/>Hell, people can believe what ever the heck they want BUT keep it out of our PUBLIC POLICY and do NOT fund it with public monies...oh lordy i got myself all worked up !<BR/><BR/> Another pithy great post women. <BR/><BR/> Thank you ! Thank you !proudprogressivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05847907206540248082noreply@blogger.com
