Wow.
Who has two thumbs and just got fucking told?
The Discovery Church.

I'm glad you said it. There's a lot of these charities out there that have this extremely self-important attitude but have absolutely no idea what they're doing to the cause they claim to support.

Yeah the worst part was def them being all, "well we don't want to do anything substantial that takes us out of our comfort zone but we're still working for a good cause that is deserving of your money." Fuck. That. Shit. I'd rather spend my dollar on a cup of Panchamama coffee.

Haha, no way. It definitely opened my eyes to a lot of things, and actually made me reconsider my whole Peace Corps plan. After reading it, I feel that it's immensely difficult to solve problems as vast and far-reaching as those in Africa, and I can't bring myself to be arrogant enough to presume to have a good idea of what those solutions might be. I do know that throwing money at it won't work, though.
