This story highlights well the great need within our country and outside our country for solidarity. The greatest social problem we face today, in my opinion, is the great violence against the dignity of human persons worldwide that manifests itself in numerous horrifying ways: abortion, genocide, child pornography, and even simply ignoring the existence of or looking down upon people in our own community.
No amount of sin or bad circumstances take away the dignity of the human person. It is not easy to bring love to those far away, but it isn't difficult to reach out to those in our own community. We can start in our own families.
