Bread and a Fish or a Stone and a Serpent
(Pain et un poisson ou une pierre et un serpent)
Mat 7:9
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
Mat 7:10
Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
Mat 7:11
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Mat 7:12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
So then, I suppose if a ratio of kind people among the whole population in a nation gets less than 10%, the nation would face any tragedy.
And, if you are kind to other people, you cannot get rich in this material world.
It is said that the number of American households that have one million dollars or more assets increased twice between 1995 and 2004, reaching and exceeding nine million.
Such households, namely nine million rich families, account for almost 10% of all the American households.
Now, you know that the U.S. has a possibility to have kind persons that account 90% of all the population.
For example, in Japan, the ratio of such households is said to be 4%; and thus the possibility is about 96%.
Indeed, we have to live on bread and fish.
Truly, we should not live on money and weapons.
(By the way, which do you like bread or rice, since white bread is so rare but white rice is so common?
And, we have even red rice from ancient days.)
