The On-Line Junior Class of Notre Dame High School has prepared this video depicting the quot;7 Pillars of Catholic Social Justicequot; in ...

like the definition, how its like charity, and how its like justice.

Created in the image of the one God and equally endowed with rational souls, all men have the same nature and the same origin. Redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ, all are called to participate in the same divine beatitude: all therefore enjoy an equal dignity.

Social Justice is the respect for the human person and the rights which flow from human dignity and guarantee it.

Society must provide the conditions that allow people to obtain what is their due, according to their nature and vocation.

This includes employers paying employees a living wage

If we truly love our neighbor as well as we love ourselves, how can we allow him and his family to live in poverty?

I have a couple of questions related to Social Justice and Religion.

1) What was the attitude of Jesus to social justice in his community?
2) How did Jesus treat the outcasts of his society and why?
3) Find a bible story that illustrates his attitude

Jesus was in the same mold as Amos. There was far too much piety and rule-observing and not nearly enough problem-solving.

Jesus reached out to the "low-lifes" and aquired an unsavory reputation as a "drunkard and a glutton" who hung out with poor people, "tax collectors and prostitutes". He also had an alarming number of contacts with lepers, Samaritans and other ritually unclean persons.

'Jesus replied, "And you experts in the law, woe to you, because you load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not lift one finger to help them.' - Luke 11:46
