At the outset, I have intentionally changed the Bye-line adding the word 'alleged' since that is a factual position. -snip- It is unfortunate that you give greater credence to unsubstantiated allegations than the track record of over 50 years of a congregation who have rendered yeoman service not only in India but all over the world , some in extremely difficult circumstances like Yemen, Iraq and Syria. Your insinuation that funds are laundered breaking all laws is in my humble view very inappropriate and as a gentleman I would expect you to withdraw this remark and apologise. ———————————————- Marshall, It is quite clear that in the era of Donald Trump, people will constantly make absurd claims - and then counterclaims - sometimes on the same day, just to be in the limelight. The more absurd their claim, the longer they like defending them. I rarely agree with you but once every five years or so, you will post something that I agree 100% with. Furthermore, I am sure that there are very few here who have already jumped to a conclusion on what is happening/happened in this scandal. I have been into a MOC orphanage in Africa. Anyone who spends a few hours in one, will leave as a changed or much better person. Those who have not seen one, will remain pseudo keyboard artists with spurious views. Lastly, it takes a lot of donations to feed the destitute everyday. I do not fault the MOC for being aggressive in that department. The alternative would be starvation. Mervyn
