Recently a friend wrote to me, "I was told by a Chartered Accountant friend from Kerala that the average monthly income of a bishop amounts to anywhere between Rs. 30 lakhs to 45 lakhs or more". I dont know the truth in it, BUT...
“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread”, said Mahatma Gandhi. Now there are 963 million undernourished people in the world. That means one in nearly seven people do not get enough food to be healthy and lead an active life. Hunger and malnutrition are in fact the number one risk to health worldwide: greater than AIDS- malaria- tuberculosis combined.
And you don't have to go all the way to Haiti or Nicaragua to see it.
Earth's problems can be solved only if we really want to do it and if we understand that after us will come our children and the children of our children who will need to live as good as we live today.
If you have the time (12 mts, 31 secs), please see this presentation and shed a tear for the unfortunate.
