For the most part I found this talk to be interesting and filled with expressed views and truths that I agree with. I am often put-off; however, when non-Americans minimize the suffering in America. Many of us in America have known death of siblings at birth or shortly thereaftter. Many Americans have known and continue to know the suffering of hunger, the lack of access to medical care, a stable home, and many more pains and sorrows of life than most non-Americans can even begin to know or understand. Having traveled to other parts of the world, I often heard highly inaccurate descriptions of life in America. No wonder the world tends to think we are all rich, fat, and arrogant in the states and believe that we should rush to the financial aid of other countries around the world at any given time. Wish my country, America, would come to the aid of it's own citizens in their times of need. After all, we are the ones who pay into the American system, and we are usually the last to receive any aid at all. Apart from that, again the talk has been interesting, though I do not think it was directed mainly towards the christian community, nor towards an american audience. Thank you for allowing me to express my opinion in this review of this chat.
