GNU Free Documentation License Should I prioritize my youth development work? Q. I am a Christian and Pakistani. Christians are in minority and not a developed community. I want to initiate an NGO for youth development work. I want to work for all youth, but I want to give importance to Christian youth. Is it alright? Or I should change my plan and work for general youth: Muslim, Christian, Hindu etc. Asked by sohaila - Mon Oct 16 14:08:53 2006 - - 4 Answers - 2 Comments A. it all depends what you mean by "giving importance", if you are a good role model, young people will tend to want to be like you. the important thing is not, in my opinion, your religion, but your ethics; i personnaly have found that religious groups can be elitist and righteous; this does not allow for the flexibility of mind you do need to do sustainable youth work.

Q. With about 2-3 minutes of speaking time, maybe just one story?
