    Not sure if responded to but there's images in real-time showing no flooding at the Summit... Hell for the most part is was business as usual from the looks of locals that posted...

    If you find one, go in and ask all the dudebros with jacked-up trucks to go out and help.

    I haven't seen any evidence other than he was shamed into opening the facility.

    Well I can only go by the reports I have read. I wasn't there. But that's kind of my point, without directly experiencing it or know someone who did first hand, not sure how I, or anyone can say what the church did or did not do. Someone mentioned they should have prepared for it and been ready... who WAS prepared for THIS kind of epic flooding and disaster? And why would a "mega church" care one bit about being shamed? You think just because some on the internet are saying negative things about them then he feels "Well, I guess we should bring in a sh** load of supplies, doctors, air mattresses, and tons of people now because my pee-pee is hurt"? Anyway, I'm not trying to defend the man or to start some internet argument. I've just seen many comments bashing him and can't understand why when no one really has the facts. I mean, when did NRG open it's doors for people? Yesterday also? I didn't see people bashing the Texans or claiming they were shamed into helping.

    But bottom line is Lakewood, and many others, ARE helping people.... thousands and thousands of people that really need it. You can question motives all you want, but that's the most important aspect of it all.

    That wall of text isn't convincing anyone -- we know the truth of the situation.

    I don't like the source either, but the images/tweets/videos from the people there look damning, site's articles are basically gawker reincarnated so not worth the read

    Is that b*stard even there, leading sermons and what not? Probably on his private jet going to an island somewhere, far, far away from this mess. Gotta love that non-taxed church money. Non-profits FTW
