Haiti: Faith Unshaken

The earthquake may have shaken the bodies of Haiti...however their faith and spirit is unshaken. I think that during this time of hardship and distress for the people of Haiti, it is important to note that contrary to what people like Pat Robertson might believe regarding the Haitian revolution of freedom against the French a few hundred years ago, that Haitians do have faith in God regardless if they are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc. Infact, this article is an example of the Unshaken faith of the people of Haiti is these hard times: http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/01/18/haiti.earthquake.faith/index.html?hpt=T2

I hope everybody that has a conscience decides to donate money in order to help the people of Haiti and not listen to people like Pat Robertson who think of Haitians as "devil-worshiping heathens". We are all made by the same God and should remember that something that happens to one of us, hurts all of us.
