In the Humble Opinion of LittleBill, Socialist, Atheist, and Humanist
Help for the Hurting



There have been numerous TV interviews following the devastating fires in Southern California with members of religious congregations regarding the charity work they have been doing with fire victims. This is laudable.

As an atheist, I would like to point out, however, that religious groups are always interviewed, while probably few members of the public are ever aware of the donations of time and treasure made by the many nonbelievers in this country and this world to those in need. In fact, we outcasts undoubtedly contribute to a far wider circle, because we include animals, birds, fish and even insects and earth and water and air in our moral and spiritual values.

kudos little bill!
The people seem to be holding up and are faring better than Katrina victims so that is good. I have been worried about you.
I keep saying Bush is going to use these growing disaasters against us to declare martial order and follow his wars.
Check this out if you have the heart. Ignore my stuff but look at Act 1-6 in the relentless drive to WW3

Patriot, this is basically what you have to remember about the Third World War: its a war against the third world.
