If we could shrink the Earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people.......with all existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look like this:

There would be 57 Asians -- 21 Europeans,

14 from the Western Hemisphere (N & S Am) --- 8 Africans.

51 would be female --- 49 would be male

70 would be nonwhite --- 30 white.

70 would be non-Christian --- 30 Christian.

50% of the entire world's wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people and all 6 would be citizens of the USA.

80 would live in substandard housing.

70 would be unable to read.

50 would suffer from malnutrition.

1 would be near death, 1 would be near birth

Only 1 would have a college education.

No one would own a computer

When one considers our world from such an incredibly compressed perspective, the need for both tolerance and understanding becomes glaringly apparent........
