POVERTY ,SOCIAL JUSTICE &PEACE

“Hunger is actually the

worst of all weapons of mass

destruction, claiming millions

of victims every year. Fighting

hunger and poverty and

promoting development are

the truly sustainable way to

achieve world peace….There

will be no peace without

development, and there will be

neither peace nor development

without social justice.”

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva

U.N.: Norway best in human development

 U.N.: Norway best in human development

UNITED NATIONS, Oct. 5 (UPI) -- Several countries recorded improvements in human development, but inequities remain between rich and poor nations, the U.N. Human Development Index showed.
The annual Human Development Index -- a combination of life expectancy, literacy, school enrollment and gross domestic product per capita measures -- was calculated for 182 countries and territories and released Monday as part of the annual Human Development Report, the United Nations said in a release.


"Many countries have experienced setbacks over recent decades, in the face of economic downturns, conflict-related crises and the HIV and AIDS epidemic," lead author Jeni Klugman said. "And this was even before the impact of the current global financial crisis was felt."
Norway, Australia and Iceland were the top-ranked countries on the index, which is based on data gathered in 2007, the most recent year full statistics are available for, the United Nations said. Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, France, Switzerland and Japan round out the Top 10.

Across the index, five countries rose by three or more places -- France, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and China -- largely because of improvements in life expectancy and incomes, the report indicated. Luxembourg, Malta, Ecuador, Lebanon, Belize, Tonga and Jamaica fell by three or more places.
At the bottom were Niger, Afghanistan and Sierra Leone, Klugman said.
Demonstrating the difference between the top and bottom countries, Klugman said a Norwegian child can expect to live 30 years longer and earn an average of $85 for every $1 earned by the person in Niger.

IL VANGELO,FINI LA SINISTRA E LA DESTRA

Dopo il vangelo di oggi (sotto) mi veniva in mente FINI LA SINISTRA E LA DESTRA italiana, la parola ...sincerità.... e mi veniva un gran male di testa...AIUTO!!!!!!
--------------------------------------------------------

Vangelo: Mc 9,38-43.45.47-48
Dal Vangelo secondo Marco
........In quel tempo, Giovanni disse a Gesù: «Maestro, abbiamo visto uno che scacciava demoni nel tuo nome e volevamo impedirglielo, perché non ci seguiva». Ma Gesù disse: «Non glielo impedite, perché non c'è nessuno che faccia un miracolo nel mio nome e subito possa parlare male di me: chi non è contro di noi è per noi.
Chiunque infatti vi darà da bere un bicchiere d'acqua nel mio nome perché siete di Cristo, in verità io vi dico, non perderà la sua ricompensa.
Chi scandalizzerà uno solo di questi piccoli che credono in me, è molto meglio per lui che gli venga messa al collo una macina da mulino e sia gettato nel mare..............

Two men met at a bus stop and struck up a conversation. One of them kept complaining of family problems. Finally, the other man said:"You think you have family problems? Listen to my situation. A fewyears ago I met a young widow with a grown-up daughter and we gotmarried.

"Later my father married my step daughter. That made my stepdaughter my stepmother and my father became my stepson. Also,my wife became mother in-law of her father-in-law.Then the daughter of my wife, my stepmother, had a son. This boy was my half-brother because he was my father's son, but he was also the son of my wife's daughter which made him my wife's grand-son.That made me the grandfather of my half-brother.

"This was nothing until my wife and I had a son. Now the half-sister of my son, my stepmother, is also the grandmother. "This makes my father the brother-in-law of my child, whose stepsister is my father's wife, I'm my stepmother's brother-in-law, my wife is her own child's aunt, my son is my father's nephew and I'm My own son's grandfather!
