Depressing Stuff

I saw a depressing article yesterday (http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/01/06/tsunami.poll/index.html). It said that seventy-five percent of Americans claim to have prayed for the survivors of the tsunami disaster, but only forty-five percent have offered financial donations. Even more disturbingly, seventy percent of the respondents said that Americans are doing enough.

How could we possibly do enough? Why can't we give more of ourselves than prayer? It's good that people are praying, but as usual, it's terrible that we refuse to offer hope with anything other than our mouths.
