William Garden Blaikie, Scottish Presbyterian, on this world He says it has been designed by God to be improveable for the greater welfare of the human race.

Thinking: penicillin, steel, mosquito netting. Then: opioids, nukes, using asbestos or As2O3 as a pesticide.

These tools around us are a gift from God, but any invention for profit isn’t therefore sanctified.

How can we build & create for our neighbor?

John Chrysostom, archbishop of Constantinople, speaks of riches. He says injustice is `inherently tied to great wealth, and asks reader to trace it back to the Garden, where God never instituted anyone wealthier than others.

I won’t allow myself a second of snobbery at Chrysostom’s misunderstanding of economics until I have an hour to share in his indignation at the scandal of poverty.

The U.S. Supreme Court is guilty of pathological deference to the government. Biased rulings in favor of law enforcement have led to injustice for minorities, the poor, and the mentally ill. We must organize against institutionalized discrimination. #EndInjustice #OrganizeNow
