Volume XXI - Number 12  

"Perspective" ....copied

If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following.
There would be:

57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans

52 would be female
48 would be male

70 would be non-white
30 would be white

70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian

89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual

6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.

80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death;
1 would be near birth
1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer

Love.......
In contrast to the attitude of Jehoiakim, there have been great men like John Wycliffe and William Tyndale. These men loved the Bible and were willing to die to make it available to the common people. We like David should love and follow it. "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light until my path." (Psalm 119:105)
