     Si on réduisait la population de la terre à un village de 100 personnes, en conservant les mêmes ratios humains, le monde ressemblerait environ à ce qui suit...

Il y aurait :

  • 57 Asiatiques;  21 Européens;  14 de l'hémisphère ouest, incluant le nord et le sud;  8 Africains;

  • 52 femelles;  48 mâles;

  • 70 ne seraient pas blancs;  30 seraient blancs;

  • 70 ne seraient pas Chrétiens;  30 seraient Chrétiens;

  • 89 seraient hétérosexuels;  11 seraient homosexuels;

  • 6 personnes posséderaient 59% de la 'richesse' du monde entier et tous les 6 viendraient des États Unis;

  • 80 vivraient dans des habitations de piètre qualité;

  • 70 seraient incapables de lire;

  • 50 souffriraient de malnutrition;

  • 1 serait près de la mort;  1 serait près de la naissance;

  • 1 (oui, seulement 1) aurait une éducation de niveau collégial (angl.: college education);

  • 1 seul posséderait un ordinateur.

         Lorsqu'un regarde le monde d'une telle perspective, le besoin d'acceptation, de compréhension et de tolérance devient apparent de manière éclatante.

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

    There would be:

  • 57 Asians;  21 Europeans;  14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south;  8 Africans;

  • 52 would be female;  48 would be male;

  • 70 would be non-white;  30 would be white;

  • 70 would be non-Christian;  30 would be Christian;

  • 89 would be heterosexual;  11 would be homosexual;

  • 6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would be from 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;

  • 1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education;

  • 1 would own a computer.

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