Norman Macleod, speaking with the weight of a church moderator, cites a witness who spent eleven years inside American slavery and found it sinful every time—an unhealed wound, cursing both enslaved and enslaver.
Today we bristle less at the injustice than at its exposure. So ask yourself: who bears the hidden cost of the services that carry you along?
Albert Barnes, a Presbyterian commentator, points to Job 31 and says, calmly but pointedly: if I’d ignored the poor, made a widow cry, or eaten while the fatherless went unheard, I’d deserve to lose my arm. Job lists mercy as evidence he’s not being punished.
Today, would that kind of emphasis earn rebuke? How do you keep such duties from slipping quietly away?

Fighting Hillary is How Progressives Win - Councilwoman Kshama Sawant
William Bates was an evangelical, Presbyterian minister. Here he talks of love, and says Christians should have fervent charity amongst ourselves. There are human and spiritual ties.
Some would insist that “Christianity” should win every Culture War controversy based on its prevalence, but then clam up the wallets when there are needs from beyond the immediate sect. Ex: Syrian, Iranian Christians.
How can you have fervent Charity?
(Note: probably should say and “CHARGE *their employees* $800 per month for a bed in a shared room.” )
Together, we are a force to be reckoned with -- a force that will continue to fight until every worker is treated with the dignity and respect we all deserve. Join us as we march forward, united in our quest for a brighter, more just future. Fight for a Union!
EXPLAINED: Our rigged economy that transfers our income and wealth to the few on the top.
The wealth & income of the rich grows faster than the American economic pie. The rigged behavior is the formula to indentured servitude for the rest of us.
