I don't have conclusive evidence of that, but I have heard it from fairly reliable sources. Doing some real research would answer that for sure. I also recently heard that that was (and is still) the case for Katrina victims. It makes sense too, because you seldom see a priest or preacher driving around in a Lexus. (Of course, there are the money-grubbing phonies who cast a bad light on the real good people, but I'm talking about the general rule, not the exceptions.) And I do see a LOT of church groups doing good things...i.e. volunteering. BTW, I've also heard that the people to be MOST cautious of are the phone solicitors. Many of them are just scams.
