You wouldn't donate if a starving baby was laid at your feet. Liberals are takers ... not givers.Trump ain't donating why should I?
I would take the baby and raise it. You don't know shit so I'd shut the fuck up. Get back to the topic in zone 1 and the TOS you have violated.You wouldn't donate if a starving baby was laid at your feet. Liberals are takers ... not givers.
Read the posts in this thread. I don't think one response is on topic. Including your troll posts.I would take the baby and raise it. You don't know shit so I'd shut the fuck up. Get back to the topic in zone 1 and the TOS you have violated.
Because Trump--and others--aren't. Although I suspect President Trump (and others) do donate to the Red Cross.Trump ain't donating why should I?
Nope, it wasn't off-topic or trolling I was stating a fact.Read the posts in this thread. I don't think one response is on topic. Including your troll posts.
The left is pretty busy trying to tap into Trump's bank account with bogus indictments. But none of us knows for sure what charities Trump supports. He used to give to St. Jude's Children's hospital.Because Trump--and others--aren't. Although I suspect President Trump (and others) do donate to the Red Cross.
So your entire philosophy is a "monkey see -- monkey do" philosophy. Since Trump isn't going to give them, I'm not going to give. Very mature.Nope, it wasn't off-topic or trolling I was stating a fact.
Why not? I pay taxes and the govt. is giving to the victims so I have already donated.So your entire philosophy is a "monkey see -- monkey do" philosophy. Since Trump isn't going to give them, I'm not going to give. Very mature.
Then don't give and think of only yourself. In other words, just be yourself.Why not? I pay taxes and the govt. is giving to the victims so I have already donated.
The point being, if one is bothered that someone else is not contributing, it could be a "Here's your sign" moment where one feels he should be contributing. Personally, I agree with those who quietly support charities without having to name or call attention to what they are doing.Nevertheless, none of us should determine what charity we will or will not support based on what the next guy does or doesn't do. That's a childish ideology.
The Bible supports your assertion that giving should be a quiet and personal thing. But I also believe Christians are called to draw the world's attention to biblical principles. Charity is ignored by millions of humans. Think how great the world would be if everyone on planet earth had a charitable spirit.The point being, if one is bothered that someone else is not contributing, it could be a "Here's your sign" moment where one feels he should be contributing.

It is anyone's own decision as to when or whom he wants to help. And it is great to know that there are people who are willing to help with deeds and actions, and not just words - aka Politicians.My current concern is the wellbeing of the victims of the Maui fire. When I put myself in their shoes, I can't help but feel compassion and a desire to help them.
And here is probably the main reason why:Charity is ignored by millions of humans.

I understand various points of view on the subject but it boils down to this (for me):It is anyone's own decision as to when or whom he wants to help. And it is great to know that there are people who are willing to help with deeds and actions, and not just words - aka Politicians.
The difference between you and me on that subject is, that I refuse to help people- financially - that live in a rich society aka country. It is a countries aka governments duty to help it's citizens in need. And in America unlike e.g. Germany, politicians are very well aware about American citizens willing to help each other - which only emboldens those fuckers to do nothing, but spend the tax-dollars on their golf memberships, salary-raises or burning of billions in some dumb war - thousands of miles away from home.
As such with every well meant financial aid you are indeed helping people in need - however the sum of financial aid accumulated by such actions is never near as to what people in need actually would require - and that required sum is never forwarded by the government, simply due to taking your actions into account and as described above - therefore blowing billions on non required or non-essential issues.
And this mentality applies across the board on all these fuckhead politicians - regardless of their party membership.
As for Biden and Trump we are not in need for a discussion since we both know where we stand in that matter. The same applies to many other issues e.g. those Lefty&Lib scumbags. From what I know about you - you certainly don't need me to tell you as to who to vote for - aside from that you are also old enough to know for yourself.
All I state, from time to time is: I would never vote for, or view a human scumbag as a valid political alternative towards a senile scumbag.
Okay - back to topic.
I'm still having trouble deciphering your posts. I think your point is that when someone suffers great loss, they must have had it coming, and that it's an act of God? I'm guessing that your philosophy is endorsing the idea that folks should stand back in arrogant superiority and look down upon anyone whose lives are destroyed by natural disasters?
You're making no sense. Have a nice weekend.your a joke and deceitful - using natural occurrence as an excuse for intentional degradation of the heavenly garden being destroyed by your innocent victims - the heavens, mother nature answers your call and you whimper when you get what you deserve.
No doubt - we share the same attitude in that regard and in regards of an individual's plight - BUT a natural disaster, e.g a hurricane, a flood or a huge wildfire - needs to be the concern of the government and it's duty to act, and not that of an individual citizen.I understand various points of view on the subject but it boils down to this (for me):
If I see a fellow human-being suffering (regardless of their social, financial, or political leanings), I feel an obligation to help them in the here and now. None of us will ever know when we can find ourselves in similar situations. If I'm on the street suffering, should I expect someone who makes less money than me walk past me as if I'm not worth helping?
I believe that what we do to help others can return to us ten-fold when we least expect it. Eastern religions call it Karma. But Christianity also teaches us to be givers and helpers of our fellow man.
I can be extremely stern (sometimes to a fault).No doubt - we share the same attitude in that regard and in regards of an individual's plight - BUT a natural disaster, e.g a hurricane, a flood or a huge wildfire - needs to be the concern of the government and it's duty to act, and not that of an individual citizen.
One might also say, you are more humane then me - whilst I am more stern than you.
Okay - you are referring to or citing human compassion - beheld by morals and the education we received, e.g. holding open a door, victims of a flood would be welcomed to stay in my home, dress them, feed them. defending a weak person against an obvious lowlife and aggressor etc.I can be extremely stern (sometimes to a fault).
But I have a feeling that if a flood destroyed half of your town and your house was spared, that you'd be more than willing to help your neighbors who lost everything. Compassion is one facet of the human condition. I'd say that 95% of mankind is in touch with their compassionate nature (from one degree to another). If we see an old lady fall down, we're going to help her up. If a dude in a wheelchair is trying to open the door to a fast food restaurant, we'll open the door for him. If a child is clearly hungry or lost or in distress, we're going to give him/her some food or help in any way we can.
