Here’s the thing about justice: it extends beyond political correctness. Each one of us has a duty to defend others who are being forced to act in a way that denies their deeply held moral and religious convictions. This moral obligation to defend the right for every person to live and work according to their faith—even Christians— is just as significant as our moral obligation to care for the poor.

—Chelsen Vicari, “Social Justice Includes Defending Religious Liberty” (HT: Aquila Report)
