I'm conflicted on this issue, I really am. Part of me is angry because no organization should reject any kind of donation...but, at the same time, I also believe that you should stand by your beliefs too, without going too overboard. I really don't know.
Though, one thing that does bug me...traditionally, the people who use the Salvation Army are those who are either one step away from homelessness, or are in between jobs, or have some hard luck story where they can't afford a Christmas for their families (well, unless they are milking the system, but that's another story). If they're really that desperate for toys or food or anything, you'd think that the least of their concerns would be being offended by a Jesus and Mary doll.
At least, that's my thought, anyway.
