Describe Christian Teachings about the way in which believers should treat those people who are less fortunate than themselves?
The world is divided into two sections, these are both given names. One is the Rich North; the people who live in this area have a good standard of living and a prosperous life. The other is the Poor South; the people who live here do not have a very good standard of living, they suffer greatly due to lack of vital resources needed to stay alive. Why is this though? Well there is more than one reason that the Poor South became a place of poverty and low standards of living and that the Rich North did not follow the same patter, instead became the opposite. One of the main causes of poverty in the Poor South is due to the ever increasing population, the people would be able to share the food more equally and have a lot more if they did not have so many children; as however there is no state pension they need to insure they can survive and have enough food for when they get older. This is why they have more children. Hunger and thirst is also a big factor as they do not get the right amount of vitamins and so therefore are more vulnerable to disease, even though the EU have enough food to give them all they would need, nobody wants to pay for this. Other causes of poverty are Debt as many countries owe money to other countries through devastations etc, Wars and conflicts between two countries where they put all there money into making weapons and many people will become homeless and through natural disasters people become homeless.
