I looked at the website and found it interesting. The one thing that I found amusing was their effort to solicit information from the public as to who on the donation list is a member. The web site claims in the FAQ to be all about information, neutrality and transparency, but they make a point of telling readers that if they will identify members on the list the web site will guarantee the identity of the person making the identification. So much for transparency.

I wonder if some of those same people ever gave that much for fast offerings or other humanitarian efforts?

I think we would all do well to worry about our own donations to any of these efforts and not about the donations of others.
