More on Helping the Have-Nots

My friend, S. Margaret John Kelly, who is the Executive Director of our Vincentian Center, says this in response to Rick's post on Helping the Have-Nots:

"[Rick] points to a very basic reality: There will be no global solidarity or justice until there is moral transformation undergirding and permeating the social transformation.  For that we will need lived affirmation of the principle of the universal destination of goods and general commitment to pursue the justice and holiness of Matthew 25. 

"It is helpful to reflect on what a just and moral community and a larger society would look like as well as what we are willing to do to create one."
