Everything and Everybody is just a moment in God's TIME .

Yes , racism is a SIN . The old Catholic Baltimore Catechism remains an excellent guide to personal morality . But the SIN of RACISM does not originate in the wicked hearts of individuals . A whole social system is involved in collective social evil.

               You can tell an individual capitalist that GREED is a sin but that does not change the " soul " of Wall Street .

       You can tell people to love one another but that does not stop WAR . You stop war by smashing the military machine, You deconstruct the military caste mentality ( American sociologist C. Wright Mills called it " crackpot realism " ) .

    You cannot begin to stop capitalist exploitation if you tell people that this economic system is forever , is based on eternal principles as if the FREE MARKET were programmed into the Big Bang 13 billion years ago.

     Everything and everybody is just a moment in God's TIME .
