Am I the only person in the universe who'd like to b*tch slap these people? I mean, every day I'm confronted with these images of those poor, underprivalged kids in foreign countries, and all I can think of is how much I want to slap the deacon showing me.
I mean, it is sad, and there is something to be done, but all I can think of is the little girl down the street from me who has nothing but a dead-drunk mother and an empty stomach, a little girl *I* take care of most of the time, and then they want me to adopt nineteen little famine children as well.
The local church generates enough money to support these kids a few times over, and they send missionaries over to experience the 'horror' firsthand, and they accept donations, but only about a fifth of the money actually makes it over...does this make any sense?
I tell the churches to stop buying all those huge crucifuxes and start feeding those kids, implement sex ed. classes...
Nothing.
Anyone else feel this way?
