80,000













7.6 magnitude. 80,000 dead.
what are we going to do about this? it is unacceptable. i cannot, as a Christian, as a human being, live with a clear conscience knowing that 80,000 people are dead from an earthquake. we can send men to the moon, we can pay football players 10 million dollars a year to entertain us and yet we can't save lives of those who are among the poorest in the world. this is not right and i will do everything i can to see that this does not happen again. we must do something.
as edmund burke once said, "the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
let us be the ones who do something. let us be the ones. now. today.
