Does Paul do enough?
-
Paul is very generous, I am sure we will never know all the people he has helped over the years. He does his own thing. If you had a lot of money, would you like everyone telling you how to spend it? No!
-
Giving money it is not charity. It is supporting corruption. What inspires me is Macca's music, what he does or not, if he makes charity or not, it is something between him and his consciousness. I am sure he is generous. He is a Gemini.
-
I love his commitment,He folllows his heart obviously. How much more a human can get more beautiful once they are true to themselves..He is vegeterian, and strongly against animal abuse..Not only his music calms me down when I am very sad, but also he is my inspiration.

I believe Paul is giving to so many charities his time and money. I believe so many of his songs sing of peace, love, and harmony with our environment, and protection of the animals. I believe he is trying to reach out and teach the world as much as he can while he is on this earth. I have grown up knowing Paul through the media, and he is still doing what he has been doing since the beginning..teaching us to love each other, and not hate..and to protect the things our Creator has given us on this earth. Paul has been an inspiration to me since eleven years of age, and continues to do so at the age of 55. He is truly a beautiful person. If there were more of him on this earth, the things that could be done, the poverty taken care of, AIDS gone, Landmines no more, etc.

I think a better question should be one that we each should ask ourselves: "Am I doing enough? How can I help make this a better world?" If you don't have money to give, then maybe you could volunteer your time. Or, just by making a few changes in your own personal life. (Now, I feel like a real hypocrite. I know I should start with changing myself first . . . )

I agree completely!!!

the fact he married a woman with one leg was a act of charity. How many guys would of taken the time to get to know someone with a disability. It also may be the reason his judgement got clouded.

Okay, I know you probably didn't mean to be rude, it's not nice to make fun of people with disabilities, but your . . . bluntness . . . is downright hilarious! "Dear Lord Jesus, Forgive her, for she does not know what she does . . ."

Apparently he does. So we can all criticise him for it.
Here we go as usual.....no one can put forth an opinion on the almighty one....
:
Tripping thank you for your voice. I entirely agree with you and thank you that you care. support you and think just the same. Though I came here to speak of another quite serious problem - the kid's cancer and the lack of equipment for its testing and detection. In our country the doctors say that 80% of kid's lives can be saved in case of early cancer detection. Though hospitals in Ukraine lack professional equipment for cancer detection. And the people who can make serious donations dont pay enough attention to this problem. Its a problem not only of our country I guess. Cancer is a world kiler and demands serious research to save the lives of people all over the worl and people we love. And I think that such prominent personalities as Paul could be the voice that could pay attention and attract donations in research of this problem.

What inspires me is Macca's music, what he does or not, if he makes charity or not, it is something between him and his consciousness. We are talking here about looking for changes and nobody's going to critisize Paul. And if such topics arise it means that people can share different opinions. Unfortunately, there are some serious problems that still exist in our world and we have to join effots for overcoming them. As P.s. - We love Macca first because he is Macca not because of his charity activitis because 'money cant buy me love'. And his music has already made the world a better place and became a part of my life like the sun rising every morning. He is the best person in the world I ever have heard or seen.

Thats the good thing about Paul he does all these good and considering things to make his loyal fans happy and he enjoys it too. Thats why he's my hero. PAUL IS THE GREATEST
LIKE WHAT SUZY SAID!
-
I think him try to do what him thinks is good for the world also, him makes a good work for the landmines although him doesn't have sufficient time.
-
Paul has done a lot in his life time, concerts, other events, charities you name it. If I remember correctly Paul did receive a LifeTime Achievement Award some time awhle back. Paul has made millions of people so happy. That's one of the things I really admire him for. He never leaves a crowd disappointed. God bless him.

I was wondering in the context of the philanthropic activites that Paul is involved in if you think he does enough. I mean some things are on a global and financially motivated track and others are more personal. All charities need money but it's not ALL about money is it? It's that he's given much of who he is and inspires us. What ways has Paul inspired you? What charities do you think are most worthwhile? Does involvement encourage you to get involved as well?
Welcome to the board jdavis, I have said it before, all though PETTA is worthy of Paul's attention and support...it isn't as important as other charities. I love animals but I don't put them before people, that isn't right! Paul wants everyone to go vegan and I'd do that for Paul....but, a lot of people can't afford to eat that way, it's too expensive!

Being vegetarian is different to being Vegan, and as a veggie I'm def saving money now more than when I ate meat. I think he is one of these people who doesnt shout out to the world that he gives to charity or supports charity and for that I respect him
-
Paul has done numerous great things and has done a wonderful job of using his charm to win people over.
Meat - Free Monday inspired me to go vegetarian. He has also gave bags of money to many charities.

Vegetables, rice and pasta are less expensive than meat- that`s why it`s the diet of people in poorer countries. I really don`t know where this idea has come from that being a veggie/vegan is expensive. It`s Paul`s decision which charities he supports and which he thinks are important. Other charities get plenty of support from other celebrities - animal charities are often neglected. How is Paul putting animals before people? That`s your personal opinion that he is doing it (and that it isn`t right!).

Paul has said that if he is seen promoting a cause it is because he really believes in it. Surely we would rather have him do that than turn up at every charity ball? I think the problem is, alot of people think Paul should be supporting their pet charity - but it may not be something that Paul feels passionately about or even approves of. Paul is an activist for what he believes in. I don`t know how anyone could even suggest that he does not do enough.
femaleanimal, I'm laughing so hard at your words: " turn up at every charity ball", I almost fell off my chair when I started imagining that!
I don't know what Paul is like but this is a joke right????

Hi You Guys: I did alot of reading in this of the previous months of comments and they are INTERESTING. I'll throw out this since I've been thinking about it too. There is alot of speculation on how much money Paul's got. I wonder if people consider what it must cost Paul just to keep his privacy (with his guards and all). " I bet I couldn't afford that for one week" was one comment I agree with, and he's been paying that out for years. And how much do you think that show he puts on costs him? Yeah he enjoys it but he's also working hard. I like that he's kinda behind the scenes with his donations, not like some who seem to think they can buy they're way into heaven.
: And you youngsters, wake up, Paul's music is way worth the price. Look around, so many rip-off's these days. When I have my headphones on blasting one of my favorite albums I'd say that is priceless. What I like is the way he jams in as much as possible, every song is great
