At Stake Are The Lives Of Many Children Who Will Be Discriminated Against In Advance, And Deprived Of Their Human Development Given By A Father And A Mother And Willed By God. At Stake Is The Total Rejection Of God’s Law Engraved In Our Hearts.

Sometimes We Are Tempted To Be That Kind Of Christian Who Keeps The Lord’s Wounds At Arm’s Length. Yet Jesus Wants Us To Touch Human Misery, To Touch The Suffering Flesh Of Others. He Hopes That We Will Stop Looking For Those Personal Or Communal Niches Which Shelter Us From The Maelstrom Of Human Misfortune And Instead Enter Into The Reality Of Other People’s Lives And Know The Power Of Tenderness. Whenever We Do So, Our Lives Become Wonderfully Complicated And We Experience Intensely What It Is To Be A People, To Be Part Of A People.
