The Seamless Garment
    Serving human dignity begins with ensuring every person’s right to life from conception to natural death. That always means defending the disabled, the terminally ill and the unborn child. But our obligations go beyond that. The right to life implies other rights. It implies the right to adequate food, clothing and medical care, justice under the law and opportunities to earn a living. It also implies a right to adequate shelter; to a place each of us can call "home."
- Archbishop Chaput, quoted in Homelessness: Issue goes to the heart of living the Gospel [via The Curt Jester]
