some people in GWWC think that there are other ways to help the world which are even more effective than donating SCI or AMF
So you agree that when Michael said
While GWWC believes that alleviating global poverty is the best way to hero the world today
he was mistaken? Or is there a sort of ‘GWWC official view’ that not all people in GWWC believe? The latter is quite plausible, similar to Cabinet Collective Responsibility?, or the way that couples tend instinctively back each other up in public, even to the extent of glossing over their private differences.
GWWC is a somewhat large community of people, and I don’t speak on behalf of all of them. The important thing is that they are a community of people who are all committed to giving 10% of their income to the most effective organisations, and who acknowledge that those of us in the developed world are really lucky and are able to have an amazing impact on those in the developing world. Not every single member thinks that the best way to “hero the world today” is to donate to charities which alleviate the poverty of people currently living. My guess would be that the majority think that, and that a largish minority aren’t sure what the very best way to help others is.
