Matthew 6:1-4 said:Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

On the subject of donations... What do you guys think is better; a small amount each to numerous organizations, or a large amount to one? I go by the numerous small donations theory. Any single donation is almost meaningless, but many people giving a little bit can get something done.

Talk is cheap what have you done for humanity today?I read a post a friend of mine put on Facebook were they say:
"I did a good deed today by giving the trash man a tip so they could have lunch on me today...what good deed have you done?"
I think the best good deeds are the ones you do because it makes someone else feel better and not to make yourself feel or look better.

i think facebook has become a cesspool of depressed validation-seeking individuals. People going on and on about how busy they are, how good they are, how much they have to thank the lord for, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn.
My face is where it's at. Everyone knows this.
bragging automatically negates a good deed
if somebody has to know you did a good thing, then you did it for the wrong reason

It doesn't work like that. If you donate to a charity and they feed a family of starving African children does posting on Facebook take the meal out of their stomachs? The good deed was done. If they look stupid afterwards to their group of friends does it really matter?
salaries of $75k or more are common. (And, often, with great pension benefits.)
I thought this thread was about Alkemyst when I read the title.
