Today, elderly people are discarded when, in reality, they are the seat of wisdom of the society...the right to life means allowing people to live and not killing, allowing them to grow, to eat, to be educated, to be healed, and to be permitted to die with dignity.

Let us all remember this: one cannot proclaim the Gospel of Jesus without the tangible witness of one's life.

American Catholics are committed to building a society which is truly tolerant and inclusive, to safeguarding the rights of individuals and communities, and to rejecting every form of unjust discrimination. With countless other people of good will, they are likewise concerned that efforts to build a just and wisely ordered society respect their deepest concerns and their right to religious liberty.

Peace is always possible but we have to seek it. Let us pray for peace.

The Koran is a book of peace, it is a prophetic book of peace.

Our life is made up of time, and time is a gift from God, so it is important that it be used in good and fruitful actions.

There is no cross, big or small, in our life which the Lord does not share with us.
