It's obvious from all his hate posts today that empathy is one thing he has none of.
I have plenty of empathy. And I help when, where, and how I choose. The way it should be. Not by government fiat.

I don't deny you guys have large hearts. BamaAtl serves hundreds of impoverished inner city black atlantans every year. I'm sure you do very nice things as well.
My issue is that you guys disqualify anyone from being "empathetic" or "compassionate" if they disagree with the political solutions that you guys favor.
Case in point: me.
I do not like to speak highly of myself often, but I am involved with a south orange county branch of miracle league, an organization that provides mentally challenged and severely disabled children a chance to play baseball. For the past 6 months, I have been working with the city of mission viejo and private companies/orgs to provide funds for the construction of a special baseball field for the kids of miracle league to play at. We are almost there in getting it completed.
But under your worldview, I am an immoral, hateful, and atrocious person because I do not support using the government to procure those funds for the building of that special baseball field.
How would you like it, haughton99, if I came up to you and asked if you were a christian? And if you replied no, then I make the blanket statement "you lack morality and a adequate ethical compass". You'd rightly be very upset at that proclamation, because being a christian is not the only avenue for being moral.
Yet according to you and BamaAtl, the only way to be empathetic in this world is to support the government provision of charity.
It's an unfair and deeply close-minded way to judge people.
