We see the loss of lives. We serve the victims. We feel the fear.

Despite apparent advances and even significant changes in the last two decades, the reality of racism remains. In large part it is only external appearances which have changed. In 1958 we spoke out against the blatant forms of racism that divided people through discriminatory laws and enforced segregation. We pointed out the moral evil that denied human persons their dignity as children of God and their God-given rights." -Brothers and Sisters to Us]]> 2017-03-29 17:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/adebellis/raxru51o2d3v/wish/163504677 adebellis https://padlet.com/adebellis/raxru51o2d3v/wish/163505278 "As a gift from God, every human life is sacred from conception to natural death.

The church teaches only God has the right to take a life. We have no right to say somebody should die or somebody should live. Violence does not bring peace, it only results in more violence. By setting a loving example, peace can be possible. Love is the only thing that can stop hatred. 
All people deserve mercy and the chance to repent.
We are all created equal. We are told we have differences but these differences make us beautiful. Such as parts of a body, they look different, but they are all important.
Life begins at conception. The church advocates for pro-life. Expecting parents have other options such as adoption if they feel they are not ready for a child. The church teaches that they will accept any children that are unwanted and they will gladly find a home for those babies that deserve the chance to live. All people are to live and die naturally without assistance from others. Only God can call a person back home to Him. ]]> 2017-03-30 21:08:26 UTC https://padlet.com/adebellis/raxru51o2d3v/wish/163833522
