Comments on: Canadian Anglican, Lutheran bishops ask for National Housing Day prayers https://anglicanjournal.com/canadian-anglican-lutheran-bishops-ask-national-housing-day-prayers/ National News from the Anglican Church of Canada Mon, 21 Mar 2022 17:12:33 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Allan Pearson https://anglicanjournal.com/canadian-anglican-lutheran-bishops-ask-national-housing-day-prayers/#comment-4078 Fri, 24 Nov 2017 14:38:00 +0000 http://anglicanjournal.com/?p=152903#comment-4078 From the article
“The bishops encourage Canadian Anglicans and Lutherans to “lift up” National Housing Day, to advocate for improved housing for those in need of it “and to pray for the action necessary to address this need.”
This sounds like the bishops would like someone else to act and to solve this problem.

The article also states
“The prayer then asks for “courage and wisdom to transform unjust structures of society…”
Just exactly what are “unjust structures of society”? This sounds a lot like left wing politics.
For me an unjust structure in our society is a taxation and social welfare system that takes excessive amounts of hard worked for and earned money away from people that do work day in and day out at honest jobs only to turn it around and give that money away to other people many of whom are fully capable of working but choose not to.
