Christians are not doing very little when compared to anyone, and Christians are very involved in politics and world affairs we are a big part of the reason governments all over the world help feed the hungry. Starvation is a problem that requires an on-going flow of money, and that money is coming mostly from Christians who pay taxes and donate money at church. What you should ask yourself is, why aren't the other 5 billion people in the world doing more to help?
And would that example of Jesus be regarding the starving ?
Well starvation requires food not money persay, where do the prayers of those who prayer for their daily bread (as instructed by christ) go ?
For instance, what does this mean ?
Matthew 6:26:
25Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns—and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?c
28And why do you worry about clothes? Consider how the lilies of the field grow: They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For the pagans strive after all these things, and your Heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.
If those in countries starving are crying out to god, what is god's solution, does god need your money to make crops grow ? why would god need 5 people, never mind 5 billion.
And where is your evidence that christianity, as a group give more than say muslims ?
