Take a look at this: Democracies do not have famines

I think I largely agree. We can modify capitalism to be more fair. I do think the best way is offering equality of opportunity. I was trying to come up with a fitting metaphor for 'blaming' poverty and hunger on global capitalism. And I think it would be like blaming the health care system...

G-20 Protesters Aiming at Wrong Target - WSJ.com

I googled World Food Day, and their theme this year is 'World Food Security: the Challenges of Climate Change and Bioenergy'. Once I hear climate change I can't take something serious any more. What I suggest is not falling for emotional gestures. They distract from actually doing something...

What I wanted to convey is that gestures make us feel good and serve our good conscience. They do not help anybody. By preoccupying ourselves with gestures in the name of some cause we mostly make ourselves feel better. I am advertising that each person either admits to not caring or starts...

Sorry to be frank... I don't see any benefit of more meaningless gestures. Malnutrition is not a lack of food, it's always distribution that is the problem.

I know how you feel. What is specificly? You may PM, if you like... :thumbsup:

Touchet. ;) Hehe :thumbsup:

@OP: :) I knew that. ;) LOL. Isn't this a catholic forum?

I love You, Jesus.

I agree with the above post by Brikkz. I wish to elaborate on that question. Would an atheist, who insults Christ, who has a Christian family, that pray for him/her, have a better chance to heaven?

I was PM'ed by a Chaplain. Thank you.

Thanks for the heads up on blessings. ;) There is something I like to ask, actually. I have trouble finding around because of all the subforums. Where would a good place to start discussing things like Christian belief be?

Hehe. If the majority wants otherwise, they should not get their will.

No. Dont strawman me. They can do so IF THERE IS A REASON. Not if they claim there is a reason.

Gay marriage activists. They can have votes on gay marriage, and if it passes, they get what they want. Stopping there would be reasonable. But also wanting their will in states that don't vote that way, is not.

Ridicule me if you like, sir. But if gay marriage activists arn't bent on getting their propaganda out there, why are they trying to so hard? Please name a more "active" activist group. What I added about dinosaur riding muslims, is not entirely silly, don't distort it and say it's not true. I...

Those semantics don't matter. It's nowhere in the constitution that you can only vote on things that effect you. It might not be "logical", but that's no reason for an exemption from democracy. The majority had decided how it wants policy to be. The minority can only change that if it can come...

You might be losing it. ;)

Yeah. Sometimes I feel like I'm wasting my time with all this "logic" and "argumentation", its just about pressure groups screaming loud enough, insisting and bribing and intimidating everybody with political correctness.
