"In judging our salvation or definitive damnation, God will not be guided by cultic criteria - when and how we prayed - nor by doctrinal criteria - what truths we believe in.  God will be guided by ethical criteria: what we did for others.  The eternal destiny of human beings will be measured by how much or how little solidarity we have displayed with the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, and the oppressed.  In the end, we will be judged in terms of love." (Leonardo Boff)

The whisper of our words will always be drowned out by the roar of our actions.  My beloved Catholic Church proclaims 'justice for all' and I yearn for the day when it will begin living up to that proclamation in its dealings with women, divorced and remarried couples, and non-heterosexuals.
