Don't worry about being effective. Just concentrate on being faithful to the truth.

The Gospel takes away our right forever, to discriminate between the deserving and the undeserving poor.

We must talk about poverty, because people insulated by their own comfort lose sight of it.

Our problems stem from our acceptance of this filthy, rotten system.

We plant seeds that will flower as results in our lives, so best to remove the weeds of anger, avarice, envy and doubt, that peace and abundance may manifest for all.

Somewhere in the fear and chaos, there is a clarity that few will ever experience.
