Charitable causes

Monday January 2, 2006 - 4:06AM EDT

I've made quite a few posts on charity. And since I can't sleep even though I am exhuasted from working on websites I will make another post about it. I've heaped criticism upon charity givers and spare pretty much no one. I've appluaded some particularly interesting charitable causes that appear to be different from the norm. I just can't seem to find the reasoning to support charity as it is today. Not after seeing virtually nothing from it except a few feel good news reports. It has caused no widespread change. All it does is make those who give feel less guilty. Which is funny because charity is such a Christian thing yet guilt is so Jewish. I hope I am correct on that assumption, what little research I have done on Judaism, guilt is a recurring theme. Maybe I have that wrong. Anyway, charity is stupid. I've still haven't seen another news story like the one I posted about a while ago where someone finally called out charity for the sham it is.

The most disheartening part about this charity thing is that there are a whole bunch of people that think it is good and that they are really making a difference. There are another bunch of people who don't even think about it. Then there are others who have been giving forever and don't know what else to do. When is someone going to finally blow this thing up and expose it for what it is and come up with something better? I'm pretty sure the kids in Ethiopia are still starving or did that MJ song make it all better?
