    To be fair, a city in the middle of the desert, where men was not supposed to go, taunting the will of god like Babel, might not be the best place to keep homeless people around.

        You are free to assume that I made a deliberte word choice there, or you can just assume that I mean something sensible with it. Whatever suits you best.

            Fair enough, “sensible” is a very subjective term these days, always has been, but now even more. I mean to not leave people out on the street to die in scolding hot temperatures, but rather arrange for decent emergency shelters and ultimately proffesional help to get people back on their feet, or at least off the street.

              Ah, that is sensible. Thanks for clarifying, and I agree. Homelessness is a failure of a community. If the climate is already hostile to people who have shelter, we better make damn sure unhoused people are protected too.
