All of them. Not just the greediest mega churches. All of them. Housing every homeless person in the U.S would cost $20 billion per year. The sum total untaxed money taken in by churches each year in the U.S , is $75 billion. Churches could fund those housing costs, and give every one of the 550,000 homeless people in the U.S a salary of $31,000 a year, and they'd still have $37.5 billion left over.

Wow! This one has generated quite the discussion. Well, here's my two cents: every religion is clearly throwing around just absolutely bonkers, bogus stories. You can't blame people for catching on to that, over time. Not one of these religious stories provides a description of creation or reality that squares with the scientific evidence. Seems like the only "good" purpose for religion these days is that it gives it's followers something to help them with their immature fear of death. That and maybe a sense of community. I sincerely hope that, as we gradually improve, we leave behind the antiquated thinking that allows these ideas the space to propagate.

To find out how this conversation started in the first place, we reached out to HurtHurtsMe, the Reddit user who posed the question, "What do you consider to be the biggest scam?” They were kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda and explain what inspired them to start this thread.

"With the holiday season and change in weather, it’s hard seeing clothing prices jump around," the author shared. "A jacket could be $50 original price but on sale for $22. Then the next day, it’s the lowest price of the season sale! 50% off. Same jacket is marked back to $50 with 50% off to equal $25. If you are not actively stalking pricing, you could get scammed into what you think is a good deal based on retail messaging."

On average, it costs students in the United States $108,584 to attend college for 4 years, and they can spend even more if they go to school outside of their home state or at a private university.

Homeopathy has one (and ONLY one) thing going for it, in that the "doctor" treat their patients with respect and care - it is one of their "dogmas", it seems. Considering that most patients have no idea how homeopathy supposedly "works", the placebo effect plus the "therapy" session with a trusted "doctor" might in fact produce some results. This is not to condone homeopathy in any way, there are still big bucks preying on ignorance, but our real "western" medicine could learn a thing or two about the value of respect towards the patient.

How about the scam I fell for :( The fraud department of my bank calling me, alerting me to fraudulent charges happening on my card. I’ve had my identity stolen before, so I wasn’t surprised snd was just grateful they found the charges early on. I googled the number and it was the same # as my bank.

They had identifying info about me that not just anyone would have and asked me verifying questions after that my bank asks me any time I have called them before. It was so, so believable and I was already in a stressed mental state prior to the call. When I called my bank directly the next day, even the employee told me it was legitimate. It wasn’t until I called again that an employee dug into their logs of texts/calls to me that they determined it was fake. Luckily, I was only out about 1.5 hours of my time in total with talking to the scammer, changing card and bank numbers, updating accounts, etc and didn’t lose a dime.

Main lesson I learned: If your bank calls you for ANY reason, hang up and call them directly. Don’t be dumb like me.

Edited to add: When they were sending me texts to verify things / help me add the card alerts to my phone, the confirmation texts came from a number that I’ve gotten legitimate texts from my bank before. They’re too smart!!
