Kennedy Case. The Bishop Flunks the Professor

Kennedy Case. The Bishop Flunks the Professor:
"“Christianity is not mainly – or even significantly – about politics. It's about living and sharing the love of God. And Christian political engagement, when it happens, is never mainly the task of the clergy. That work belongs to lay believers who live most intensely in the world.” Several lines later, I note that “Christians individually and the Church as a believing community engage the political order as an obligation of the Word of God.”"


Now that is how I look at the whole issue of social justice and subsidiarity.
