The second edition of this text has the same sound theology with updated stories, images, and statistics! The Living Justice and Peace course empowers students to examine society critically based on values from the Scriptures and on the seven themes of Catholic Social Teaching. The text addresses specific topics including abortion, capital punishment, racism, poverty, the environment, and peace.

| I am in the process of trying to get this book removed from our Catholic High School. This book loves militant leftist/Marxist ideology, has an entire section on Liberation Theology, and overtly criticizes the US while praising socialism/communism. It doesn't mention great Catholic social justice saints like Vincent de Paul, Kolbe, or Francis of Assisi and barely mentions Mother Theresa. It is filled with moral relativism equating the Soviet Unioin to the USA stating directly they both wanted to militarily control the world in the cold war. This book is wrong historically, it fails to promote Catholicism, and is more aligned with the ideology of Reverend Jeremiah Wright than Benedict XVI. Did I mention the book doesn't even mention the Compendium of Catholic Social Justice Teaching? A Catholic school would be negligent to have this book in its curriculum. |
