Charity vs. Justice

Hi,

Here’s a comment from Bill Moyers about his take on the difference between charity and justice. I totally agree with him…I just wish I’d thought of it first!

Charity depends on the vicissitudes of whim and personal wealth; justice depends on commitment instead of circumstance. Faith-based charity provides crumbs from the table; faith-based justice offers a place at the table.
- Bill Moyers

We at HOMEpdx offer our friends who live outdoors a place at our table; our food table and the table of input as mambers of our core team,

By the way: we’re broke. Seems as if the econ downturn may have hit us a bit. Good news: Our “DONATE” button works!

Love,

Ken
