>>Visual FreePro is not highly valued among men. Men everywhere completely shun it because it is an offering unto God.

Yes, but you cause that yourself by tying the proposition to Jesus, thereby cutting out good people whose beliefs are different.

>>Men are looking for business initiatives, something they can gain from monetarily, and quickly. Visual FreePro is about building a sharing, caring, loving community of giving helpers centered on the true foundation, Jesus Christ, and His teachings.

Samaritans were despised when Jesus was alive, but did he shun them? No- he passed through their towns, spoke to women at the well, told parables about the Good Samaritan, and told his disciples that the time would come when worshiping in Jerusalem Vs Mount Gerazim would not be important. Whereas you seem determined to cross the Jordan to avoid them rather than following his example. Ask yourself whether some of those you exclude are Good Samaritans who may believe differently from you, but still found favor in the Savior's eyes.

>>This is what all people everywhere are supposed to do with all things in their life.

So where is the place for Metin and Tamar in your efforts? Why would you deliberately shut them out as a gift to Jesus who said not to do that?

My advise is to hold your aspirations close to your heart and shine forth inclusion and generosity. Be like the fundamentalist Christian congregations who quietly fund mission hospitals in Africa without publicity or hope for any reward in this life and without trying to limit care to those of similar color or creed. No gongs and clashing cymbals to advertize their goodness: those who believe know that these people will be richly rewarded later.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
