Frivolous Flyers

The approval of a helipad at a megachurch in the Seattle area seemed very wrong to us. At first we decided to suspend judgment, thinking perhaps the church is engaged in Harrison Ford like rescue missions around Mount Rainer. Sadly, instead it was explained this way, "The church will use the helistop only on major religious holidays and for special guest speakers, said Hulsmann, owner of Abbey Road Group Land Development Services. Another case would be a special event, such as Wendy Treat’s birthday, so she could be at both campuses for services, Hulsmann said." Yes, that's the American church putting those tithes to God's work.
