If a bunch of us got together and built a BengalsBoard clubhouse I would not consider that "charity".

Churches do a lot of very good charity work, I'll give them credit for that.  But they take care of themselves pretty well also.

The point is that while many of them give to their own churches, most do so with the mindset that their church helps other people regardless of whether the church actually uses it for others or itself.
