I am not sure what to make of this comment - are you suggesting that Kiva is a "poison on humanity" for doing this, or that I am for saying it?! Please clarify! For further reference on this specific point you might find Dr. Phil Mader's post, which I reference, useful:

The actual quote is that Kiva allows us "to consume the feeling of charity without financial loss"

You might also appreciate the work of Domen Bajde referenced in Mader's article.
