If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

For a small town church, in tough economic times, it might be quite a lot. 
Remember the story of the widow's mite from Luke's gospel?

Man looks at the amount of the check; God looks at the amount left in checking!
"I shall smite you in the nostrils with a rod of iron, and wax your spleen with Efferdent!!"

$800 isn't a lot of money. 

Either way, they still raised a significant chunk (even if it isn't huge) for someone who had campaigned against things they believe in.  Still nice.

As far as the victimhood complex goes...  I must admit it does get old, from all sides.  But, I do find it even more tiresome when the group in question is the majority of a country and controls the government and most of its infrastructure.  It's not to say there aren't times when they have a point, but sometimes I feel perspective is lacking. 

You can say the same thing at times about men's rights groups and white right's groups, I think.  They often have a point, but their overall attitude and social position can undermine it.
