As I’ve made clear in recent pieces on the addiction epidemic and deinstitutionalization, I remain fiercely critical of the myopic, misguided progressive policies at play in the current homeless and addiction crisis in California. Still, meaningful faith won’t allow me to disregard the suffering right in front of me. I’m reminded of a quote from Dostoevsky in “Brothers Karamazov”:
Brothers, have no fear of men’s sin. Love a man even in his sin, for that is the semblance of Divine Love and is the highest love on earth.
