FWIW It is my opinion that the percentage of charity donars giving out of unselfish motives is very small. Charity, as a principle, has everything to do with kind hearted character. Charity as an institution is quite another matter; as it is quite possible and probable for people to use the mask of charity to garner influence, proselytize, or to self promote for economic or political reasons. "But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a penny. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, 'I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything--all she had to live on.' May God bless the sincere and giving souls. gem
