(James 2:13) Mercy triumps over judgment.
The word justice can call to the mind a juridical order. Professor-you without sin cast the first stone. God is the absolute model of integrity. Justice is the famous moral and biblical virtue to extend to the total and all the commandments of God. The summons to an ominous judgment such as the professor's announcement of absolute condemnation is wrong. I agree in many ways with the professor on the absolute hypocrisy of the Right Wing politicians, but in no way would act in these extremes.
Professor, look very closely at U.S. Senator Rick Santorum's voting record on social justice and tell me he deserved Catholic man of the year from Christendom College. Is not the function of conscience attributed to the heart. Conscience is "theonomous" when it is described as pure, clear and true. Look at the formalism of the hypocrite. Look how the Biblical Texts and Christ himself admonish hypocrisy. Fraternal correction accompanied with fraternal charity is helpful. Intelligensia sometimes is dangerous. In (1 Cor. 1:19) St. Paul exhorts, For it is written; I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world.
