Notes

 Im basically looking at the church as an institution of discrimination. 

Slavery

Holocaust

Native American Indians

Aboriginies

Magdalene laundaries

Ecocide

We should be in an attitude of repentance and humility.

How can we be peaceful against this backdrop? 

Hence the unsettling peaceI 

there is no peace without justice' ...and that peace is not neutrality. It is challenging injustice even when it is in our own institutions, history, story...
