How much harder is it for us to remember the same about those when the issue goes so much deeper. Sometimes we fail to think about the dignity of those with whom we are having a difficult conversation — even when the disagreement is over the dignity of the human person and what it means.
No matter what others think, how they treat us or where their baseball loyalties lie, they are made in the image and likeness of God. And this demands something of us, regardless of how uncomfortable that fact may be. That is true regardless of which human being we fail to love. But often the victim is a fellow baptized Catholic. Again, the contemporary world often trains us to see fellow Catholics first as allies or foes in relation to secular political goals. Is this a MAGA person or a “social justice warrior”? Is this person an LGBTQ+ ally or “homophobic”?
As Catholics, we should know better, but often we don’t do better. Especially on social media, our first reaction is often to attack, disparage and define by opposition when we ought to demonstrate respect and even reverence for the shared humanity of our perceived opponents.
