I find a disturbing sense of patronizing superiority in this article.  As Christians and Catholics we are called to care for the poor and the vulnerable.  An essential element of our call is that we reach out to those with different life experiences than our own with humility, and based on our common humanity.  Chapter 7 of the Gospel of Matthew begins. "Stop judging, that you may not be judged.  For as you judge, so will you be judged, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you."  The author evaluates two human beings in terms of their external appearance and finds them wanting.  The "scary stranger," the "brother I would never claim," the "sister I would never own," the young woman in leggings, and "the blanket man," each of these people deserves love and a welcome that does not judge.
