You should give them. Unless you do other kinds of charity, it's the least you can do. I remember when my family was poor and I had to shop at goodwill, the clothes were pretty shitty, so giving nice clothes would be great. Even better would be to sell the clothes and use that money in a charitable way. Donate presents to some kids who need it, or help feed people in Africa, or any of the billions of other things you could do. Any little bit helps. |

Yeah, that's their version of Karma and their beliefs. Anyone can choose to believe what he or she wants to. The guy didn't say he was a Buddhist as far as I've seen so your point is pretty moot. |

As far as I know, that's his definition of Karma, so it's just another word for that. What you're trying to say is that there's no higher power behind it or something, but if good things happen to good people and bad things happen to bad people (i don't believe this, by the way) and we choose to call that Karma, then Karma exists. It's just a a word for an idea. |

I don't really believe in karma all that much. What I do believe in is doing good for people around you, unless they are undeserving.

It just doesn't seem like it's the way it works. Why is Rupert Murdoch so rich? He will never lose that money, no matter how evil he is. In fact, it seems like evil and callous people are more likely to get money early on and money perpetuates money. And I don't really think money is the most important thing, but that's just one example. Human nature is to disregard people who are quiet and kind in place of people who are obnoxious and flashy, good people seem to die young... I'm sort of rambling here. I'll think about it and give a better post tomorrow when I'm not so tired. |

save yourself the labor and throw it in the fucking trash. and pat yourself in the back for your good actions-- think of all the jobs that will be created to make new clothes instead of the shit you threw away. save the fucking economy. the homeless only produce feces anyway. i personally turn my old clothes into cleaning rags. you never know when you need to deal with vomit on the floor or spunk on the furniture. |
