I don't understand how you get off attacking people's discretionary spending being somehow morally reprehensible when you own an iPod. How is the purchase of an iPod morally superior to purchasing pet insurance?

My math:
Buying an iPod saves exactly 0 lives
Purchasing pet insuance, or taking care of your pets shows compassion and thought for a fellow living thing, while not human

How do you justify supporting a team, in your line of 'reasoning' who would spend 12 million dollars on a new scoreboard when they could have sent that money to support starving families in third world countries? Given your outrage to something that costs maybe $20 a month, that must REALLY **** you off.

How on Earth can you justify needing your clothes altered when there are MILLIONS OF STARVING CHILDREN IN THE WORLD1?!?!?!111!?!!?! My God, man, get your moral compass looked at (no offense)! You should be glad you even HAVE clothes!

Oh, right, I understand, this isn't your point, its not about you, you're not a Christian so it doesn't count, you can spend your discretionary income no matter how you see fit. Make sense!
