Practice Charity -- Today!
I took some heat a while back for suggesting that we give to Islamic charties for Kashmir quake relief. Here's why:
Aid that gets shot out of the sky is no aid at all. Jesus did say "Love Your Enemy." I can't think of a better way right now. Check this
And friends, that's just Pakistan, the quake was regional and affected other nations as well, most notably Afghanistan. Those nations aren't quite so good at counting, but hit as hard.
And while we are being charitable. Blackfive is hawking a fund raiser for Soldiers Angels - raising money for soldier's with specific injuries to get computers. They are running a bit of an inter-service competition. This civilian is afraid to shose sides on this one, I have too many friends in all the branches. Maybe I should send a little each way? Join me?
