Love is the oil which greases all the world's machinery.
One of my favorite scriptures, "He who is kind to the poor one is lending to Jehovah, and he will repay."

As individuals we can't help all the poor people in the world, but we sure can help those who come into our lives or paths.
I've given to charities for the last 8 - 10 years.......I remember one elder trying to say something to me about my giving to the Humane Society and I absolutely FREAKED on him (I have a very soft spot for animals, especially kitty-cats)........I don't remember what words I used but I basically told him he was a lousy Christian if he thought there was something wrong with helping poor helpless animals. He was so shocked that I freaked on him (he probably thought it was PMS) that he never brooched the subject again. Idiot.
Oh, but the BEST example of being a shit-assed "Christian" came about 6 years ago at the District Assembly. The District Overseer, Brother Asshole Supreme, was talking about giving money to the Society before anything else and gave an example of a brother who had died, and who made the horrible, horrible decision to leave $100,000 to his local Humane Society. He said "I guess you could say his money literally went to the dogs." What a F#cking Asshole..........there were shocked looks all around and I could kick myself that I didn't go and blast his face off afterwards.........jerkoff.
Mary, I can't help but wonder if that person who left their money to the dogs did it to burn the JWs.
LOL!! Imagine, what if they thought they were going to get a whole boatload of money and instead, it went to a charity that they have called a waste of time. LOL!!!
