Alpha, forgive my directness: how can you laude the message which is becoming an all-inclusive generalized accusation, even to those desperately trying to help in the ways still possible to them?
i.o.w. to which extent can anyone be honest and expect solidarity for that?
i know that christianity has taken the mantle of charitable work before modern societies began to organize themselves with whatever civilization their individuals could muster as a sacrifice no different from jesus.
to say it even more bluntly: the promise sent around the globe was that if the economy was doing well, everyone would do well.
stupid me who never ever believed it, huh?
for pete's sake!
491? not so sure at this moment.

no, Alpha, i cannot make out justice by confusing languages. if it's that what you are now saying.
john 3:16 for me needs integration into my life, not my seeking refuge in words about one whose very voice and words many of us cannot hear at the same time they are repeatedly cited one way only.
\!!
certain things seem in "need" to go unsaid, not unspoken, however.
pictures of intense suffering and an accusatory comment do not substitute for the dialoges and interactions true human beings create in continuation.
i have to interpret your answer, Alpha. believing in true friendship to develop into more than my shaky "faith" habits. thanks, anyway.
