Texas Atheist 'Flabbergasted' by Outpouring of Christian Charity

Patrick Greene sued a Texas county for displaying a nativity scene on the courthouse lawn. In response, Christians in the area raised money to help him pay his rent.
Greene told Graham he had a more immediate need. “I said, if you really want to contribute something to help, we need groceries,” Greene said. [… ] “I told my wife about it,” Greene said. “They’re going to help us?” Karen asked. Greene thought that if anything, he’d see $50, maybe $100. A few days later, the Christians made good on their promise, and sent a check for $400. “I said I can’t believe it,” Greene said. “I thought I was in the Twilight Zone.” The money went to help pay the rent, and provide necessities from the grocery store. The contributions didn’t stop at $400 either, Cry said. More money is coming in.
