No, that's what you're inferring.What I'm implying is that this article will just keep getting posted and the comments will be flooded with comments about how terrible and stupid Christians are for it. This was a company donating some of it's resources. Short sighted in the light of all the physical needs the people have? Yes. But hardly worthy of the backlash that it's getting.
Perhaps they can just eat the electronic bibles... or at least thank the right God while they starve to death and mourn the gruesome deaths of their peers. Thanks god!
While I am not religious myself and find the idea of believing in some fairytale to be perplexing, faith is what has helped a lot of these people keep their sanity in an insane situation.While solar powered bibles seem to be overkill (just have someone READ it to the illiterate), sending bibles to a very Christian nation is not something to get worked up over.

Because god, like Chuck Norris can concentrate and form their own atmosphere around themselves.

@Dylan47, well I'm glad that you decide what makes a good catholic or not. I suggest reading DoubtingThomas' comment as he explains it fairly well.
