Reply to Scrooge and God in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Scrooge is mostly portrayed as not caring about his fellow mn, lacking compassion. He did not give to the charities that helped the poor and homeless, loans were paid on time. No excuses. More of the selfmade man. Remember: Are there not workhouses, no prisons?" IG

Scrooge and God in Current Events JoeUser Forums

There is a scene in most movies about the Christmas Carol. The first time I saw it was in the Muppet Christmas Carol. It is when Scrooge meets the Ghost of Christmas Present.
