the scam of eternity is that God And Lucifer are two sides of the same coin.  Lucifer is a goat alright.  A scapegoat.  He exists to do the things that God can't get caught doing. 

Jesus turned this into a big joke.  Its called The Cosmic Joke. 

Wanna hear the punchline?

Everything you hate is just as much a part of you as everything you love. 

:rofl:

that one always cracks me up :lol:

Before it was called the Cosmic Joke, some wise fools called it Tao. :yinyang:

Do you practice the religion or the philosophy?  Lao-tzu did not call it a religion. (The adaptation came later, when some needed a spoonful of dogma and ritual to make the Tao go down. :wink:)

no, I practice the philosophy. But it is a religion if you make it one, and I do so occaisionally. I mean, I believe things I can't prove to others that are based on the philosophical ramifications of the Tao.

Getting back to the topic of poverty.

Just some food for thought.
Being one of the richest industrialized nations in the world (if not the richest, I'm not sure) we give the least amount per capita of any of the wealty countries of the world.
0.15% of our income.
This means out of every thousand dolars we give 1.50$
Imagine if every human in the United States gave 1 penny of every dollar they made. This would make an unbelievable difference.

As for my answer to the question.
I usualy give a dollar or two and whatever change I have on me. But, I think the real way I try to make a difference is to think before I purchase things. If I really want to buy a pack of cigerets or some fast food I will stop and just dog-ear the money I would have spent. When I get home I put that money away and figure I would have spent it anyways. I a saving up so one day I can start my own organization.

"People living deeply have no fear of death."
"Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love."
"Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings."

Yes! I am above the statistical average! I am more giving than those losers who give less. :grin:

:earth: :sun: :headbang: :satansmoking:
Peace. :mushroom2:

:redpanda:
If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
