Paul Enright(@pmje73):I grew up observing generosity to be quiet and unspoken. If there was a big school or church event and not all families could afford to attend, a family or two would quietly pay for those families and the school would quietly let them know not to worry about the cost of the event please just attend. Today if families can’t afford an event, a committee gets assembled, debates whether the event should even happen, then decides that if it is going to happen, all other families must submit an equal share of the cost to the committee who will present all collected money to the families so they can have the money to pay themselves. What are we doing.
