I always suspected this might be true to a lesser extent, if I buy a toy for my nieces and nephews, I might put a few smiles on their face but if I give food to a hungry child, I might save them from an agonizing and painful death. I'm not a saint - I spent $29 on hamburgers today for the family but I am willing to give a fractional amount to those who are worse off then me.
The catholic bible says people who have extra money and do not help the starving are murderers, thoughts?
