In fact...for anybody that gives to charities, how do you know FOR A FACT that you donations are being applied the way you are told they are?...this is a thought i've had in this reguard.

just another thing to ponder...

Yeh that is a very good point.

The charities etc that I donate to, I KNOW them. For instance, T.E.A.R, We have reps here in my church, and they actually support smaller organisations, so I have a good understanding of where the money is going. I like the smaller organisations, because they are accessible and you can check out what they are doing and they really need the help. I dont know if everyone has time to do what I do though...unfortunately then, they donate to the big names etc.

Reps are so important for the smaller organisations, because they educate people on what they are doing, and what is going on out there, so they can be touched. Very important to educate the public.

this dosnt explain why 90% of the worlds wealth ignores the millions of starving children and families, when they could easily help out one or 2 of them with literally no sacrifice to themselves

Yeh, I know what U mean, I mean...God in all of us?...I understand that, but....

Someone once said that God speaks in a still, small voice...

Please! We drown Him out all the time!!! And ignorance is bliss...
