Medical Expenses: Brother Very Ill in Thailand

I might be wrong but I don't recall anyone saying everyone can or should be forgiven. Like I said, it's an alternative view. And it's got you all talking. Seems a contentious area for a lot of people.
It is contentious I am afraid, and it happens quite regularly when this kind of subject is raised.
I agree with you (as pollycat knows) but we, and others who disagree with them are as entitled to our opinions as they are to theirs.
I find it incredible that you would not help anyone in the situation described as much as you could.0 -
This should have been the 'Moral Dilemma' thread!

Great minds! I have suggested that. Like other MMDs, people on opposing sides will still say it is unrealistic.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards. I volunteer to help get your forum questions answered and keep the forum running smoothly. Forum Ambassadors are not moderators and don't read every post. If you spot an illegal or inappropriate post then please report it to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com (it's not part of my role to deal with this).

What'll happen is it will be watered down to something so basic it will be impossible to form an opinion!

Is that your contribution to the debate? Talk about slow.... So anyway dear, what do you think about the actual topic we are discussing?? What would you do?0 -
That's a relief. For a minute there I thought you only entered the thread to have a pop rather than join the debate and tell us all what you would do. Interesting to note that two other people also agree with me & not one of you has gone after them in the same way you all bit with me. Funny that eh. LOL0
