    My grandma used to work at a Catholic charity to distribute food for people without resources.

    There were a few Muslims who requested food from there, and they always complained that the meat wasn’t halal. Their very Catholic response was that they treated everyone the same, and weren’t going to change the food they offered just because some Muslims were complaining.

    Then again, quite very Catholicly, they didn’t offer any meat during Lent to anyone.

        In my country they don’t pay property taxes, and often use charity as a justification. So it’s debatable if their help with strings attached is a net positive.

        Give me your wallet and I’ll buy you an acceptable dinner with it.
