A Southern guy I know well, one of you wingnut types, told me he
donates to his church, and that is his charitable activity. Does his
church help the poor? Nope. It builds buildings, pays high salaries to
its ministers, buys them fancy cars, and sends "missionaries" out to
convert Christians to...Christianity.

I just wonder from time to time what "the rich boys" here do other than
indulge themselves. It would be nice to know that some participants,
especially the wealthier retirees, are "involved" in helping those who
need a little help.


I think people should do what their conscience tells them, in the manner
they prefer and to the degree they decide.
I don't think people need to be told how, where, why and how much in
order to pass muster in the eyes of others.

Don't you agree?

I agree with the sentence beginning "I think people..." One of my
criteria for "judging" people, though, is what they do to help others.
It's part of the "mustering" process I apply to others.


So what have you ever really done to help others?
