controversy over two forms

So Mr. Andy talked to us about these forms that people actually fill out for finanical aid or for clothing. One form askd for you finanical situation while the other asks about you religious beliefs.

I personally dont agree with churchs asking questions just to turn these people in need away because they do not share the same beliefs or they didnt go to church that sunday. But I do see why some churchs might ask these questions when someone they do not know comes to them asking for help.

When people come to a church, the church wants to help these people. And the church where I'm from they ask questions like this so the advisor or helper knows how to talk to the person. The church doesnt want to offend the person in need. They always refer the person to a self help group that is inside the church.
