Surely all you fine citizens are recognized somewhere for all you've done for others, you must be listed as a benefactor somewhere that could lend credence and authority to your disparaging the motivations and work of others!
we are not worthy of your gifts to us - but thanks again for your usual sweetness and good cheer. god bless you.

I would venture that he's an avowed 1%er, which is to say only 1% of the population thinks as he does.

I'm just encouraging people to make a donation.

I was trying to politely say, "put-up, or shut-up" to everyone who is spending their time arguing about how generous other people are. You don't have to play along.

people who believe in a higher power do not need anyone to tell them hell is the place they go if they do not give, its not at all like that if you dont believe it oh well

the teachings of any religious org is simple, give what you can when you can

the left have their accountant telling them the write off - reason they ern more on paper

the people who give from the heart give for that reason alone - if you know anything in life, everyone is not looking for what's in it for them

one can be conservative and non religious and walk chew gum at the same time contrary to what some think on this site,

another thing most who are among the giving have no need to want anyone knowing, it would be contrary to the teachings, but of course you could not be expected and they don't expect you to understand any of it, being a non believer - tolerant people they are

that is the way a believer believes - please spare me the English lesson on what and how i wrote this don't read it if you don't like what and how i write and spell -- jz

There you go talking to yourself again, at least it makes sense this time!

Perhaps you missed the public-records.

Educate yourself on his record of non-giving. He's a stellar non-giver.

Actually the more I think about it, I really like the "Mr. 1%" label. It seems to be an unintentional compliment; I've been around long enough to observe how the other 99% of americans think (or don't think).

Can we both be Mr. 1%, or does that make us both Mr. 2%?

You're back, can I assume that you've made a donation?
