I got these statistics from an email list, but I think I remember seeing
them in a book titled, "Fearfully And Wonderfully Made." Just in case anyone
wanted to verify these numbers.

Something to think about

THE WHOLE WORLD AS 100 PEOPLE
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of 100 people, with
all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look like this:



There would be:


57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere (North and South Americas)
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non-white, 30 white
70 would be non-Christian, 30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual, 11 homosexual
59% of the entire world's wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people and
all 6 would be citizens of the United States
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
Only 1 would own a computer
