This is a reminder that having good intentions on social and political issues is not enough to be a good person or a good citizen. If one perpetuates evil by unthinkingly repeating reasonable-sounding, but ultimately foolish distortions and lies, one is complicit in such evil. Slavery was defended as a social good. And today, we hear similar ‘humanitarian’ and supposedly Christian rationales for banning refugees, disregarding climate change, ignoring mass atrocities and ethnic cleansing, perpetuating plutocracy, justifying widespread abortion, and completely ignoring racial injustice. These justifications are swirling all around us. Watching moderate, middle-of-the-road white Americans defend segregation as a positive good serves as an important reminder for all of us to examine our beliefs and arguments to ensure that neither prejudice nor laziness has led us to embrace that which is intellectually incoherent and incompatible with authentic Christianity.

Happy Friday!!! 😊 Hope this puts a smile on your face this morning! 👌🏾

World hunger is not a lack of resources and inability to distribute problem, it’s a capitalism problem…and it’s now on the rise again thanks to corporate sponsored climate change and profit motivated war.

Trump has already gone ahead with several deals that Obama blocked, including the sale of $7 billion in precision-guided munitions to Saudi Arabia despite human rights groups’ concerns they have contributed to civilian deaths in the Saudi-led campaign in Yemen’s civil war.
