If we could shrink the Earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people. With all existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look like this: There would be 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere North and South) and 8 Africans. 51 would be female; 49 would be male 70 would be non-white; 30 white. 70 would be non-Christian; 30 Christian. 50% of the entire world's wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people and all 6 would be citizens of the United States. 80 would live in substandard housing. 70 would be unable to read. 50 would suffer from malnutrition. 1 would be near death, 1 would be near birth Only 1 would have a college education. No one would own a computer When one considers our world from such an incredibly compressed perspective, the need for both tolerance and understanding becomes glaringly apparent........ This was forwarded to me by a friend. If it makes sense to you, forward it to a friend.
