 | Bringing Forth Justice by Daniel E. Pilarczyk
We all seek justice. We know we are called to practice justice. But we have many questions about justice: Who decides what is due to each? On what basis is that determination made? What are my rights as a human being, as a member of society, as an individual relating to other individuals? Where do these rights come from? How do I know if I am being just to others and if others are being just to me? What is the role of government and law in all this? Archbishop Daniel Pilarczyk responds clearly to these questions and more: Justice is not so much an obligation as a gift. It is an opportunity to take part in God's loving care for the world, to assist God in making the world everything it was meant to be. The Church -- the community of God's people -- and the teachings of scriptures can point us in the direction of justice when we turn to them for guidance. Ultimately, justice belongs to God.
