But Holly, Christ did not say, according to mainstream christianity, do good works, or community service, or you cant come in. He leaves it up the individual to decide for themself to do the work for others. And by so doing not only the beneficiary is blessed with happiness but so is the giver. I have to put my two cents in with those opposed to the abandoned plan of President Elect Obama. Mandatory service is in fact a violation of the 13th ammendment as it is forced labor. However, it is a wonderful thing to be able to serve our communities because in so doing we benefit and do in fact make it easier to accomplish our goals of the american dream because if our communities are better our opportunities improve. So does our happiness.
