" In life, there are absolutes. Homelessness is an absolute. It will always be with us. It reminds us that we are blessed. It prevents us from falling into total unthankful ness. It reminds us that things could be worse and if they become so, someone will try and help us. These poorly dressed and unsettled people are teachers and purveyors of hope.

Our nation and Christian beliefs are based upon a homeless person. The only bridge we have to God is through a homeless fellow. Many doubt there is a God, yet hundreds of millions have claimed for centuries that this homeless man’s message was true and that they have verified it for themselves.

Jesus was born in a stable. Being poor and disliked helped him experience things people like you and I live with each day. Homelessness was necessary for him. It was said that the foxes have their dens and birds have their nests but he had no place to lay his head. The same way you think of the homeless now is how you would of thought of Jesus then. What are the homeless teaching you now?

" The Mission board and staff try their very best to serve Christ by meeting the physical and spiritual needs of people. Some of the people are hurting. Some are down on their luck. Some have made bad choices. But all are human beings who deserve our compassion. My mom used to say, "But for the grace of God, that could be me." I have made many mistakes in my life and often I have not lived in a way that honors my faith, but I do not regret my support of Home Sweet Home. "

" Simple. If you’re that down on luck that you can’t find any sort of employment whatsoever, join the military. If a bum is good enough to accept American charity, then he’s good enough to serve their country. There’s illegal immigrants streaming across the border and you’re telling me these bums I have to step over every time I go to a big city can’t find some sort of work? It may not be minimum wage, it may be off the books, but at least it’s something. As for shelters, there are so many churches and temples in this town that I cannot imagine why we would have any problems sheltering those who are truly in need. These ridiculously gaudy ‘houses of worship’ are nothing more than fraternities for the self-righteous to come together and gossip. "

" merely one step away from being anyone else. Lets say your employer closes - no notice - just closes. The job market is flooded with 200 newly unemployed individuals. You have job experience - you are willing to work any job, but you cannot find one - you loose your house, your car, you go through your savings, you exhausted your unemployment. You apply everywhere, but you are overqualified - no one will take the chance because they don't want to train you knowing that you would go elsewhere if a job in your field opened up. Where do you go with your family? Not everyone that is homeless chooses to be homeless. And yes, there are places you can go for assistance - one time. So even if you hit all of them - perhaps you manage to drag out another two or three months for your family to remain in your home. That argument made and settled, you can still be just one step away from being the people you so openly are disgusted with. Before you judge - consider. "

I've been a customer for decades with no claims and they have now canceled my policy because they don't like my new address. They claim they are experiencing too big of a risk and loss to insure coastal houses. Well, I see their BILLIONS in profits and wonder if they forgot that their job is to INSURE. They whine and groan about a few years of actual claims, conveniently forgetting that they've experienced decades of very few claims. What are they doing with their money? They are raising rates, walking out on tens of thousands of loyal customers and being investigated for fraudulent practices. Please stop singing the praises of this company when it is failing at its actual job. "

Quit Judging what you know nothing about! wrote on Oct 4, 2007 3:30 PM:

" It's a sad situation. I feel that most homeless just have given up and don't have the energy they need to better themselves. And with the world getting worse day by day, it makes the homeless situation worse as well. All of us are different and can handle things in different ways, or can't handle anything. You cannot judge the homeless because unless we are in their shoes, we do not know what is going on. Just like people who tell me my son shouldn't still be living at home. Life circumstances cause a lot of things and unless you are in that person's shoes, you have no right to judge ANYTHING!! "

I know that SF have done some great things and some not so great things in the past, but that's not the issue. Can you leave your anger out of this? You can help the Mission out or not, but don't use this as an execute to complain about SF, churches or anything thing else. And, unless you have lived that life, don't go assuming that everyone in the position of needing some help are lazy. There might be some, but there are others that just need some help. So help or don't, just don't complain. "

I think it is great thing they do for the community. It is shame because it seems after HSH, the only alternatives these people might have on a cold winters night for a warm place is the county jail which cost tax payers $1000s per prisioner. I am hard nosed conservative and used to think that people on unemployement where just bums until I lost my job. Then I realized that the unemployment offices of today where filled just as many people with Dockers than those who are blue colar workers. Walk a mile in these people's shoes! "

An huge economic downfall is coming, and our debt laden society is ripe for a rash of new homeless in this country. God help everyone of us who does not pray for and give to those in need today. If you claim to be a christian, regardless of the size or denomination of your church, it is YOUR job to help those who cannot help themselves.

Before you judge those who utilize HSH services maybe instead you should look at circumstance, lift a hand to help instead of hurt. Judge not lest yea be judged.

" Employees are counted in terms of 'Full Time Employees' (FTE). You can have a part-time employee and it is counted as 1/2 of a FTE, thus 1/2 of an employee. That said, those poor workers that are left are probably swamped. I have worked case management before and it can be very trying, especially since services can be scarce at times. We assist at a local food pantry and we have seen a bigger influx of people in need. One problem in the rural areas is that the most affordable housing is sometimes out of town. Not only do people have increased gas costs, but they don't usually have the most reliable transportation, making their job situation sometimes unstable. And to HOMELESS CHOOSE TO: You might want to figure out how to live on minimum wage with kids and not live in a drug infested hotel. "

Who knows their situtation. Case by case I say. Some of them give a bad name for all...some will just go and buy beer and sit over by the carwash and fight with each other, or stumble around. But there are those familes that DO need a hand. I know that EVERYONE knows that. Hard to get a job, when you have a resume but no contact number or a residence. Or if you ARE in a hotel, how does that look. .... it's an endless circle sometimes. "

As for HSH why did they let the deficit get so exorbitant before they decide to fix it? NOT EVERYONE that stays there are bums as one person put it. Some just happen to have things happen in their lives and need to figure a way to get back on their feet. Ideally it's not a place to raise children but it beats being on the street, unsafe and going hungry. Granted some may be lazy, but most have issues they wish they didn't have.

This was quite an insult to many members of their base agricultural community who had supported them for years.
