That’s great!! 😃 I hope it will also serve as an inspiration to others. Remember, you don’t have to have $1 billion dollars to donate just as much as him. 😉 Wow, I’m happy to see the decision he made. 🙂
 
I totally agree with him on this point:
… “I feel that if we keep doing abortions our country will not survive. I’m totally convinced of that”…==================

That is exactly what I think too. No kidding, I seriously mean it.
Pray daily to end abortions in the world, please!! Wasn’t it Blessed Mother Teresa who said something too about a Country that kills their young??(I’m going to have to go look that up now.)
 
I had heard of Thomas Monaghan as the Catholic Pro life owner of Dominos pizza before. I actually bought more Dominos pizzas because of this. He is truly an outstanding individual.

I had a turn of heart on Bill Gates also. At first it seemed he based his life on a dominance and power trip to crush every other software company in the bussiness. Possibly he still is. Then he started the Malinda Gates foundation and has donated a great deal of money to different causes. Maybe not the same causes I would, but causes none the less. I heard in an interview he intends to donate away all his tens of billions before he dies. For the time being I have to respect the guy.

I do agree that just because a person is rich or a CEO dose not make them a bad person. I think that it is true that, in many instances, the drive to do well and build in the bussiness field can be the same drive that causes one to do well and build up the Kingdom of God. Different objectives and different reasons with the same self motivating inner driving forces at play.
 
You all must be aware that it was he who funded Ave Maria University-in Naples Fl-the newest Catholic University in 40yrs, under the Magisterium of the Catholic Church.

Yeeehaaa!!! 👍

Bill Gates needs prayers, not respect.

He supports Planned Parenthood. Imagine giving tens of millions or billions of dollars to organisations that want to destroy human life.
