i think boris is right. western media certainly tips the media balance to their own end a whole lot more. a tornado hit midwest in america, 23 died and we've been hearing about it 3 nights in a row. after hurricane katrina and 1800 deaths, the whole us cried foul and we never heard the end of it.

although some part of this is due to asian country's direct or indirect refusal of help from foreign, especially western countries.

We're also not contributing 40billion to China like we did Indonesia (I'm confused)
The Indonesian tsunami caused about 10 times as many deaths, displaced 1.1 million people and left Indonesian infrastructure unable to cope. In comparison, China seems relatively capable of sorting out the pieces.

Also, it was 7 billion, not 40 billion.

a truly benevolent god wouldn't wipe out schools and schools of children, most of whom wouldn't have died instantly.

thus, god does not exist.

you cannot prove whether or not God exist. if you have faith you have faith if you don't then you don't. also like i said before im sure God did it for a reason.

Ive had just about as much as I can take from you slime.

It's not clever to make light of tragic death. The holocaust is not funny. Racism is not witty. You are not ground-breakingly taboo to laugh at rape, abortion, prostitution, paedophilia, homosexuality.
I HOPE YOU ALL GET WHAT'S COMING TO YOU

Racism IS witty, think about it. For hundreds of years we've been fighting over what race is the best. It's too bad people don't really look down and realise we're actually made out of water, bacteria and cells. :p

lol what type of agrument is that... because someone believes in God it means that they are delusional. there is no correlation between the two. if you believe that all those that believe in God are delusional you have to ask yourself if you are the one that is delusional. like i said before it is close to impossible if not impossible to prove whether or not God exists, you either have faith or you dont.

It's funny you say that. Considering the U.S denied foreign aid from both Iran and Cuba during their crisis.

:eek: The things you learn from George Galloway's show on talksport.
