faith on earth ? where ?

Already the first sentence of Luke 18.1-8 is dangerous...  depends what you mean about "pray..."  My translation: "How to stay in actual contact with the Mystery of God...?"
And now the parable... it's clear.... to bring the judge into action...

Remarks:
a) do we have to bring God into action ? begging and begging ?
b) God is justice and likes to see justice is done !
c) Therefore: God and his justice-Spirit is already poured out !
d) We need people bringing the possible justice into reality...
e) Believer (faith) is the one who accept God is "poured-out-justice"
    and therefore he decides: I do it.


Modern problem:
Also in Namibia we have "separation of power"
Parliament (legislative), Government (executive), Court (justice).
And you ? Some people think I'm a "Governor" I have to govern, justice is not my problem, not my favourite... If you like justice, don't come to me... for this we have other persons,

sure not me...   justice is outsourced...

And in the Catholic Church ?
We have a wave of Mercy ! Justice is over...   every Sunday we beg for mercy !!!
Are there still "Justice and Peace"-groups in the Parishes ? and they DO something ?
The Church: "A Community serving Humanity" ? (at least Namibia ? )
Have the lay-people the right "to understand the language of the Church?" The right,

to get a translation into their own language? Who is giving them justice ? Or we give mercy
at will ?  Have the people the right to get "Eucharist" on Sunday? Forget it...
Sometimes the Priest will be merciful, he comes...  but there is no group in Namibia,

to introduce this eucharistic-right !

And in the Family ?
The Tate is the Parliament, the Mother and the Children are the "executive"...
Justice is nowhere...    Has the Child a right of schooling ?  to write the exams?
But the teacher has the right of 8% ?
Has the Girl / the young Lady the right of her Body... or she is basically at disposal... ?


Jesus - there is maybe no faith on earth...   but you will find it.
