Interested in dog breeding shelters, and mainly how we can halt the terrible stigma many of us may unknowingly have about shelter dogs.

This is a journal article discussing the issues of animal hoarding and the dangers it puts both human beings and animals in. Here is the link:

I am getting Luke vibes from this!! #bible

This ties back into our sem discussion on justice and if we should follow our conscience rather than the law if we feel something isn't right with that law.

[Martin Luther King @MLK_quote]

Cowardice asks “Is it safe?”
Expediency asks “Is it politic?”
Vanity asks “Is it popular?”
But Conscience asks “Is it right?"

[Martin Luther King @MLK_quote]

“There is a final reason I think that Jesus says, ‘Love your enemies.’ It is this: that love has within it a redemptive power. And there is a power there that eventually transforms individuals.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.

A5. This letter most definitely connects to our world today. I know what's right. You know what's right. Let's work together to make the world a better place conquering one issue at a time. #sensemchat

A4. Boyle uses his privilege to help those less privileged than him. For example, he does not just call the police when he sees gangs, but instead attempts to spread God's love among them, because he believes that is what everyone needs to turn their life around. #sensemchat

[Nia Foster @NIAFOSTER23]

A3. I was inspired when Dr. King mentioned many honorable people in the past and labelled them as extremists for great things they were passionate about. It amazed me how he took a word with a very bad connotation and used it to connect to amazing ideas and people. #sensemchat

[Nia Foster @NIAFOSTER23]

I slightly disagree in the sense that people usually step all over non-violent protests and many go unheard. But I do agree that nonviolence should ALWAYS be used, but I am just not sure that it is more affective in social change.

[Erin Quigley @ErinQuigley16]

@CSHSeniorSem Non-violence appears more rational and “civil” (176) than violence, and is thus better received and more affective in creating positive social progress #sensemchat

[Nia Foster @NIAFOSTER23]

A2. The conscience is the one part of the body that knows right from wrong, so it is bound to be true and just. The dangerous and difficult part is proving to other people that your conscience is right and just, which is what Dr. King did. #sensemchat

"Compassion is no fleeting emotion rising to the surface like eros or anger. It's full throttled" (Boyle 63). @FrGregBoyle

"But to love the enemy and to find some spaciousness for the victimizer, as well as the victim, resembles more the expansive compassion of God. That's why you do it." - @FrGregBoyle #TattoosOnTheHeart

"[O]ne of the main features of human existence is the capacity to rise above such conditions, to grow beyond them. Man is capable of changing the world for the better if possible, and of changing himself for the better if necessary" (Frankl 131).
