I'm baaack...

The semester is over!
And there was great rejoicing...

I still have to go to class this week, but no more papers are due!

I recently finished a paper for my Catholic Social Teaching class titled "The Integrity of Creation: Catholic Social Teaching's Best Kept Secret" It was a great paper to write, a little painful, but it made me realize the lack of understanding of so many, of how poverty, lack of human dignity and the destruction of our environment are so connected! The Church seems to "understand" this, yet it often doesn't explicitly say so... harumph!

So - I have found a cool site or two that I found while procrastinating! If you are intersted in CST and what the Church teaches try these sites, they are great starting places!

www.osjspm.org - St Paul Archdiocese Office of Social Justice

www.usccb.org - Unites States Conference of Catholic Bishops - search the site for CST and then find Integrity of Creation under the topics... Good stuff there, too.


OK - that is as political or religious as it is gonna get here! If you wish to discuss CST further, contact me and we can talk!
