A Homeless Man's Test

A homeless man in Austin, Texas recently did an experiment to see which religion cares the most about the homeless population. A photo shows the man sitting on the ground with pieces of paper labeling different religions. With each label is a bowl (and a hat) in which people can put money. The religions labeled include: Muslim, Atheist, Hindu, Jewish, Spiritual, Buddhist, Agnostic, Pagan, and Christian. When people have walked past him, some will ask about who is winning. The homeless man has been reported saying that Atheists and Christians are the two that give the most. He says that one day Atheists will be "winning" and the next day it is the Christians. Although this is not an accurate test, it is still very interesting.
