[QUOTE="grasping the after wind, post: 75538706, member: 256417"] No it is not especially as the concept of what is fair is so subjective and so much a matter of one's personal opinion based upon one's selfish idea of what one deserves. As a matter of fact fairness is the exact opposite of what Christianity is about. If Christianity was about fairness we would all be doomed to eternal death as that is what the the tenets of the religion says we all deserve. Isn't fairness getting what we deserve? Christianity is instead about Mercy and not receiving what we deserve but instead much better than we deserve. i.e. unfairness. Christians aren't tasked by Christ with spending their time struggling against some western European notion of what constitutes poverty based upon an arbitrary percentage or income group. Instead they are tasked with spending their time loving their neighbor. [/QUOTE]
