'For the judgment of God is not against the out-group, but the in-group as well. We recognize our complicity with and our participation in the absence of justice and righteousness in the world. In our angers, our fears, our jealousies, our frustrated desires, our aggressions, and our false judgments, we contribute to the total of the alienation of the world from God. Alas for those who desire the day of the Lord without recognizing their complicity.
Is there hope? We wouldn’t be here if there weren’t.'
