warning

Warning: beware of organizations or individuals who believe that fighting poverty includes “population control.” They think, wrongly, that if there were LESS people, there would be MORE food & other resources available for people. They are WRONG. With more people, we have more individuals to help create & sustain infrastructures that can & will alleviate poverty, assist the disabled & elderly, & create good communities. Those in favor of so-called “population control” usually also support abortion & maybe even assisted suicide or other forms of euthanasia . It’s a slippery slope that is the EXACT OPPOSITE of God’s intention for the world.

re the KIDS of POOR PEOPLE WHO CAN AFFORD $4 FRAPPUCINOS before SCHOOL

re the KIDS of POOR PEOPLE WHO CAN AFFORD $4 FRAPPUCINOS before SCHOOL...& the poor people who can afford numerous $8 dollar beers at dodger baseball games, etc. have you ever noticed this around los angeles? I have. And some of these are the same "poor people" who get free meals at the L.A. public schools. So while I care for those who are truly in poverty it makes me anguished when I see some of this behavior around southern California. It makes me realize the "system" is being abused in some way. And it makes me realize some of our American "poor" are not really truly poor, except perhaps in terms of education & concern & care for others; but financially & materially, although they may live in "run-down" neighborhoods they have MORE than many middle-class people in terms of giant-screen TVs, expendable income for frappucinos & beer at baseball games, and the list goes on. It makes me anguish for the true poor such as those in Africa who are actually dying from poverty, & dying from malnutrition. Let us strive to make the "poor Americans" rich in compassion & stewardship so that they use their expendable income to help the true poor.
