Humanity in general, and our Christian humanity in particular, has reached a stage of such acute contradiction between its moral demands and the existing social order, that a change has become inevitable, and a change not in society’s moral demands, which are immutable, but in the social order, which can be altered. The demand for a different social order, evoked by that inner contradiction which is so clearly illustrated by our preparations for murder, becomes more and more insistent every year and every day.

/ November 13, 2012Martin Luther King said that “our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism.” I believe that.

/ November 13, 2012I agree. So long as ‘hostility against poverty, racism, militarism’ etc., is also utilizing peaceful measures as well.
I really enjoy your posts (as well as Verena’s) and am still playing through TSWCE. They’ve cause quite a bit of interesting dialogue with the people I come into contact with.
Take care! (you don’t mind random comments eh?)
