There is enough money in the richer counties in this world to end all hunger, what are you doing to help?
What are churches doing to help when they tend to raise millions of dollars to add a new wing or build a youth center while millions of people remain needy? What about TV preachers who beg for money and then fly around in private jets? What about all the Christian Republicans who bitch and moan about having to pay their fair share in taxes because it goes to single mothers on welfare?
If I could afford to send aid to everyone in the world I'd definitely do it, but right now I have bills to pay and not a lot of extra cash.
Deflecting the responsibility of non believers aren't you. TV preachers for the most part need to examine their beliefs and standing with God, most local TV preachers are trying to reach the lost or supply encouragement to the home bound Christians. I've known rich Christians that give a great deal to those who are hungry or in need of medical supplies and attention, even to work in AIDS hospitals. The Christian democrats complain about paying taxes, just like you and I do. The Protestant Churches in this country spend a tremendous amount of money for food aid to those in need, we understand that those who are hungry care only about being fed, an empty stomach does not listen to others.

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.
