Yes, it's never a good idea to prove you are right and pull someone's pants down in the process. That's a good lesson I learned after bitter experience. Since we were on about the Salvation Army ... Sweden has been dismantling its social system for about 15 years now. It's gone so far that the whole system would collapse if the Salvation Army wasn't there. I knew my father well, of course, but I found something else out when he died. He wasn't a member or anything near that. He probably met them in the bar ... but it turns out he had a very good eye for them. When he pasted away, his wish was that all donations and money that would have been spent on flowers be given to the Salvation Army. They are good people.
