A visit to Occupy Albany

Deacon Walter Ayres writes in The Evangelist about a visit to the site of Occupy Albany by members of the Commission on Peace and Justice:
Authentic spirituality and good political activism share at least two characteristics: They affirm that which is good and reject that which is evil.

Toward that end, several members of the Albany diocesan Commission on Peace and Justice recently visited the Occupy Albany site across from the State Capitol and, as a result, had our picture appear in a local newspaper.

Not everyone was pleased.
The rest of the column is here.
