I don't agree that the point of charity is the warm fuzzies that I get when I give - it's a means to an end (improving the lot of others) which is more effectively accomplished,in my and many others' case, through the government handling it.
- kiba 16y agoI don't agree that the point of charity is the warm fuzzies that I get when I give - it's a means to an end (improving the lot of others) For me, the merits of charity is also about their voluntary nature in addition to the "warm fuzziness feeling". On the other hand, I suspect that our disagreement is in respect to both utilitarian merits and moral/ethical philosophy.
