Are YOU a Minority??
I am White, European, Male and Christian. That makes me a minority - so why do I not have the P.C. Brigade banging on my door offering to help me?
If we could shrink the earth's population down to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look approximately like the following.....
There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere (both North and South)
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be nonwhite
30 would be white
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
71 would be non-Christian
24 would be Christian
5 people would have no concept of religion
6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth
All 6 of them would be from the United States
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read and write
50 would be suffering from malnutrition
2 would be near death
I do not know the origin of these figures so please bear in mind that the U.S.A. consider the far East as "Asian."
