[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone should file a lawsuit.

It seems wrong that teens can get SSL hours at a for-profit business like Olney’s Field of Screams yet can’t get SSL hours through their church. [/quote]

As explained in the post above, they can get SSL hours through their church. Just not for proselytizing.[/quote]

But they can’t get ssl hours for playing with toddlers in the church basement while their parents attend mass—yet they can get SSL hours for “volunteering” at Olney’s Field of Screams which is a for-profit venture that benefits a wealthy guy. [/quote]

If it were purely playing with toddlers, it would probably be ok.  If their were age appropriate kids services or kids religious education, that wouldn’t be ok under the current policy.[/quote]

I think you are missing the point point: why can kids get ssl hours by volunteering at for-profit business ventures? [/quote]

They can’t. They have to be non profit[/quote]

Then how are kids getting SSL hours at field of screams? [/quote]
