Let do a thought experiment: I put you in a room and offer you love to eat or food. We shall see by and by which religion you will choose when the selfish surviving animal that you are begins to starve to death."You were not there for the beginning. You will not be there for the end. Your knowledge of what is going on can only be superficial and relative" William S. Burroughs

Actually the Good Lord is Ganesha Ganesha is widely revered ... Romans 1:22, 23, 25
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things...Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator... .

Yes you can eat love because love is an action aimed at helping others with whatever they need. Love is feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, etc. etc. etc.

Which does not change the fact that Ganesha is still the Good Lord.

Faith writes: Yes you can eat love because love is an action aimed at helping others with whatever they need. If you could eat love then wtf are people in places of profound famine dying from? When a mother's child dies on a dried up breast; it is not love that is lacking. People who talk like this have never experienced true hunger."You were not there for the beginning. You will not be there for the end. Your knowledge of what is going on can only be superficial and relative" William S. Burroughs

Well, if enough people with loving intentions could get to the starving then love would feed them. Love should also help them learn how to grow their own food and help in other ways. But love can't overcome some things like tyrannical governments that oppress the people and further their starvation.

Well maybe we can get the current tyrannical government and Christianity in the US out of the way so we can try to feed the hungry in the US.

Or proposed budget cuts to The United Nations that could cause some 20 million to face starvation? Edited by Porosity, : Doh!

My, how fast a hypothetical discussion turns into political bashing.

Who brought up tyrannical governments preventing food reaching the hungry?

I'm thinking of some third world nations. There's nothing politically motivated about such an observation. But bringing up American government is.

Hunger is hunger regardless of where it is. While we might have some excuse for not feeding the suffering of the whole world we have no excuse for hunger in the United State of America. Hunger is the same for the atheist and the religious. Jesus message is that we should feed the hungry and that starts at home.
