You will blame Christians for a chance to spread the Gospel while digging wells for those in need of water, or building schools and ect. Yet you will make excuses for the rest of the world not to take action for these who are in need. I think people are always more important than science projects that are probably not beneficial to man and especially if it leaves out the impoverished. We have the ability to give the people of nations with need for water that very water they need, so tell me why don't we and political should never be an excuse.
Did I say that we shouldn't? If you read what I wrote above, you'll see two things: One that we can (and unsaid that we should) help, and two, a recognition that one of the reasons why Africa is in the situation it finds itself in is because of politics and the warlords, which also hampers our ability to help, whether we want to or not.
I don't know who you were directing the rest of it at, as it certainly isn't even remotely related to anything I have said or believe.
Sorry man, I wasn't pointing at you specifically, I get upset when I think about all that's wasted trying to discover things in space and do little to nothing to help those who are in need of a basic like water. All the world has to do is stop wasting money come to a simple agreement to do whats best for those without good water and drill the wells. But noooo people would rather impress others their peers than to help the needy.

Nah, I blame xtians for slinging bullshit at hungry and thirsty people who need food and water but not your stupid-assed god.
You can blame and be irritated all you want, at least the Christian community is doing something about water for those who are in need.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
