where to direct prayer vs. where to direct real world resources


You sound like a decent person Boldyloxx and I don't doubt that you have everyone's best interests at heart and pray for everyone in the world, but I'd like to pose another question to you.
Let's say that instead of spending the thousands of dollars it's cost Terry's husband & parents each week to keep her comatose wife body "alive", what if instead that money, all those hundreds of thousands of dollars, could've been spent on helping the Sudanese refugees, or the Tsnumani vicitims, or maybe setting up family planning clinics so the Third world wouldn't be so strained in the first place...

Wouldn't that be a better use of that money, those resources? Wouldn't so much more good have been brought about in the world that way?

But the thing that drives me nuts about Christians (and I'm not saying all, just most) is that they put their priorities on wacky things when there are alternatives that make much more sense. The suffering of a fetus matters more than the suffering of a mother or the suffering of an orphan born into poverty? The suffering of a braindead woman matters more than the suffering of living people?? Sperm drying up in a condom is more of a tragedy than all the war and disease on the continent of Africa? These priorities don't make sense to me.
