This had

just the smallest little sidebar article in the newspaper yesterday.

Multi-millionaire Kwik Save founder gives away his £400m fortune to fulfil his promise to God

One would think that this would get more press, but the media doesn't want this, they want celebrities, and terrorists, and murder, and celebrities, and disasters, and celebrities...

This is REAL news! Just think, a person who makes a promise to God and keeps that promise. A person who gives away almost all that they have (what he'll have left will still keep him pretty comfortable, but that doesn't matter) in an era where accumulating as much as possible is seen as a good thing. THIS is a good thing...
