Tomato Harvest

from the mom

Kyri loves tomatoes and today I discovered she had begun harvesting my not-quite-yet-ripe tomatoes. If it has a hint of red, she picked it. On her behalf, I will say that she brought her treasures in to me to share.

the Joneses said...: I can just see the pleased expression in her eyes as she showed you your harvested crop.

Reduced to the state of silent witnesses, Christians today are doomed to become soldiers in a lost war. Their fights—especially fights on societal issues, since they concern principles and virtues—lead nowhere, and moreover have no chance of success. I am not sure the approach has been a wise one. Christians who protest tirelessly and try to prevent or overturn rogue laws on abortion or assisted reproduction can only be successful by first implementing a spiritual revolution. First convert people to Christianity, to the intrinsic dignity of each embryo, and then you can abolish abortion. Otherwise it would be like trying to impose confession on non- Catholic peoples: terrorist nonsense. Belief and adherence to principles precedes the acceptance of laws. Read Chantal Delsol's piece
