The Notion That Big Business And Big

I Am One Of Those People Who Deeply Resents Not Having Been Born In The 19th Century, When There Were Still Open Places To Explore.

We Do Not Put Enough Emphasis On Early Childhood Years. We Neglect Children In This Society; As A Society We're Guilty Of Child Neglect. If We Could Eliminate The Vestiges Of Racism, If We Could Develop A More Powerful Agenda For Child Care, Child Development, And A More Powerful Education System, We Could Prevent A Lot Of The Incapacities Which In Turn Tend To Generate Structural Unemployment.

If The Bishops Are Saying That It Is Divine Revelation That Seven Percent Of Unemployment Is Morally Unacceptable And That That Is A Teaching Which Must As A Matter Of Faith Be Accepted By All Catholics, I Respectfully Dissent.

I Would Argue That Practices That Destroy Ecosystems Always Destroy Jobs.

I Think It Is Important That Religious Leaders Of All Kinds Consciously Attempt To Distinguish Between Issues Of Natural Law On Which There Is Consensus Among Catholic, Protestant, And Jew And Those Issues On Which There Must Be A Greater Degree Of Tolerance Of Other Peoples' Opinions And Of The Diversity That Is Characteristic Of American Society.
