My bet is that the short term gains that have flowed from SSB's charitable donations mask a far deeper cost for the whole community.

You think, Neville?  I can say without any hesitatation or betting, but maybe much too negative for your taste (even though I don't post for your approval) that having a proven pedophile (and possible murderer) for a "religious leader" far outweighs any donations ever given to anybody.

I can also speak with great authority about how much child sexual abuse (rape and other types causes life-long damage and wounding to a person).  But, hey, Neville, don't let me mess up your positive attitude. 

Know Sai Baba by his fruits?  LOL!

But, don't believe me, read all about it on Andries's website.  See, you always want to think the worst of me...
