Answer 2

I'm not trying to be mean about it but really--so we have 1000 people who type our names into the lil box on our screens. Big deal. What does that accomplish?

While you sit on your computer, behind your desk, in your nice leather chair, drinking your starbucks latte....seriously though.

You have put all the things you classify as "evil" down and think merely if everyone says we don't like evil, it won't exist anymore?

Few people actually like it in the first place.

Poverty however cannot be gotten rid of b/c it is based on a relationship with wealth. What we now consider poverty in America is absolute luxury in many areas of the world. They sit in their double wides, eating dingdongs and pizzas--while being below a poverty line. Other countries don't have doublewides or pizza. As the amount of weath goes up, so does the "poverty". In fact it is already not actually poverty at all.

As for hunger--how do you define who is hungry? The person on the street holding a sign? According to many journalists, those guys can make upwards of $500 a day. I know they do in my city. Ok well I can afford to eat and don't make anything close to $500 a day. So then back to --what defines hunger? Everyone gets hungry at some point.

Racism is your only real point there and I have yet to see what signing a yahoo board--which isn't even our real names, real identities, and legally speaking is worthless....what does that have to do with ending racism?

You aren't seeing if the world cares b/c the people in the world who do care are out doing something about it. Go out in your community and do something to end evil. Start at home. Volunteer at organizations. But please--bill gates doesn't send $1 everytime you forward a chain letter. There is no tracking system in your myspace that tells him how many people have received this chain. It's a scam. And a bad one at that.

Answer 3

kieran,

it is mathematically impossible to end hunger and so-called "poverty", this was proven by robert malthus in the 19th century, you might want to have a look at that entry in wikipedia and or other more reliable sources for a good summary of his work

in essence, his principles state that "the more people we feed, the more people we will have to feed IN THE FUTURE"

thats because people who are fed will inevitably want to f u c k

hunger is nothing more than a natural check on population and therefore poverty

Answer 4

I have hunger... you buyin' lunch?
