> Actually, my reading on Catholic Christian doctorine says it is our responsibility. I forget the exact reference, but I think it is the Gospel of >St. John. "What you do for the least of your brothers, you do for me."
I don't mean it that way - I mean that its our society's responsbility to take care of our society whether or not religious groups do as well. We can't just wash our hands of the poor and expect someone else to fix the problem. > I use the old adage "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." to guide myself and my activities. I personally feel that the way I am called to fight poverty is in line with that adage. This does not preclude our society as a whole giving the fishing pole as opposed to religious groups. ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
