“Religion has been used too often as an instrument of hate and oppression, which is why much of humanity’s suffering and grief is laid at our door; and make no mistake, we have a lot to answer for. Examples of religious intolerance breeding horrific violence and alienation continue even now, threatening to make a mockery of the message we want to be sending: the message of God’s infinite loving-kindness and compassion.” Br. Nicholas Bartoli echoes Saint Paul's radical message that God’s Love had no membership requirements.
