Comments & Feedback

Your comment regarding the billionaire shows just how shallow your thinking is. Do you need a stepladder to get out of your shoes at the end of the day?

Tim in CA said "if our self worth is all about our net worth we will surely be prisoners to it."

It is not the material things man (gender neutral) has but the character within that counts. One can give away millions to charities and not be charitable; i.e., doing it for show. While one can be penniless and yet have great charity; i.e., in his heart, giving of himself.

Look around you and study the current attitudes of our society. Our god has become money and our religion has become "Me-ism." "It's all about me!!!" Me, me, me, mine, mine, mine. I ask "what is your purpose in life?" and get the stare of a deer caught in the headlights of an automobile.

It greeves me to see how selfcentered our country has become. Rather than getting out and earnestly trying to make a difference, we find it easier to sit in the cocktail lounge, or whereever, and spew our acidic venom on others.

If we are asked to help, we respons: "It's not my problem" "Let someone else handle it." "What, you want me to volunteer?" "You've got to be kidding, let the do gooders do it, I don't have the time."

Those that spew snide remarks about the man because he was a billionaire are just as much a snob as they claim the wealthy to be. Having skimmed through the comments, I don't recall anyone saying that he may have been distraught because so many people that depended on him were going to loose their jobs and/or everything they had because of his wrecklesness. Of course, I could have missed it. In the end, it will be the Great Architect of the Universe that will be his judge. May God have mercy on his soul.
