Putting my money where my morality ought to be?
NOTE: THERE ARE MORE POSTS BELOW, BUT THIS ONE HAS BEEN MOVED UP BECAUSE I WANT TO STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF GIVING NOW.
Not that I have any moral authority which might refute or negate anyone else's moral authority. Immoral or amoral as it may sound, I'm trying to stick with logic, and avoid appeals to imagined moral authority to which I can claim no superior right. Right now, my moral standard consists of giving money. I've given only $300.00 so far, but I plan to give more. If only there were some way to put a pricetag on moral authority! That way, one's ability to pontificate and moralize could be ranked and scaled and weighed in direct proportion to how much money the moralizer contributed. It's like that old expression, "Put your money where your mouth is!" (Personally, I wish I could buy the right not to moralize, but even that is not up to me.) Once again, please, GIVE! GIVE! GIVE!! (That last link goes everywhere.)
Give first, then read about who to blame. (Latter link via Free Will.) (If you don't, you have yourself to blame.) posted by Eric on 09.07.05 at 09:11 PM |
