CYEPADAECK: I think is humorous that you try to make a statement about unfair justice in comparison with Christianity. I hope you realize throughout history Christianity has made a bloody gruesome impact on cultures and colonies. Beheadings and torture for those that refuse or question Christiantiy.

We don't think we should let the actions of the past determine our current or future responses to poverty. As Christians or non-Christians.

Chrsitians fundamental teaching is absolutely right as the same as buddhism. The people who use the name of christian name and do evil deed. They will deserve bad karma in return. Anyway i am buddhist from Soka Gakkai. What i know abt christian is the same as buddhist who love people with passion and help, save, preach for the most need and the least. So stop saying Christian is evil!! Is the Human are the evil not christian bible book!!!!

I was born there, live there for 10 year of my life. I learn how to cook, clean and help out on the farm when I was 6 years old. I live day by day because of where we live. We don't have the things like most people have in life but, we're happy. I was a few lucky people that made it this far in life. I will never forget where I live or where I was born but, I will always try to get better in life everyday.
