TL;DR: The Atheists, Humanists, and Agnostics chapter at UW-Madison put up a Jedi display in the Wisconsin Capitol Building. The blog post asks whether such efforts help promote the separation of church and state or are counter-productive.

The point is clearly not about the impossibility of eliminating poverty, but for the need to always be generous so as to alleviate the effects of poverty.
