affect social justice? What restricts freedom and social justice? And how does all of this play a role in the Kingdom of God?
Social justice is a concept of a society in which every human being is treated justly, without discrimination based on financial status, race, gender, ethnicity, etc. Grace is a gift from God that we don’t deserve, which helps us choose the good, therefore it promotes social justice. On the other hand, sin, which can be regarded as a lack of love and care for “others,” distances us from social justice. Therefore, love and grace are essential aspects of social justice and without them there could be …show more content…
For example, most laws promote an “eye-for-an-eye” type of legal system. This encourages people to retaliate or “get even” with others, which is seen so often in America’s lawsuit-happy citizens. This is obviously in contradiction to the ends of social justice, which promote love and brotherhood.
Social justice is not an “us versus them” mentality; rather it is a “were in it together” mentality where the powerful and powerless work together. Obviously those who are in need are the poor and oppressed: women, African-Americans, Jews, Latin Americans, etc. However, due to the fact that these people are in these oppressive situations, they gain insight into the injustices that surround them specifically, and society in general. Although they are made poor by those in power and the structures, institutions, and organizations run by those in power, they still possess “strength to resist, capacity to understand their rights, [and the ability] to organize themselves and transform a subhuman situation (Boff, 1)”. The poor and oppressed are held above the rich and powerful, in other words are given preferential treatment.
Substance abuse is acceptable: drinking alcohol, taking drugs, and especially selling them is portrayed as an acceptable way of life, and a successful way to make you more money than anything. Popular rappers make teenagers feel their lives aren't complete without expensive cars and countless bunches of girls open to and willing to carry through with any of their intentions.

Rude behaviour, excessive swearing, lack of respect for women, parents, fighting, participating in criminal activities and taking illegal drugs are examples. These short term consequences usually drag youth into being associated with people who sell drugs, or bring them to sell drugs themselves, it could cause them to kill people, participate in gang wars, damage properties of their opposing gangs, and frequent criminal activity. The existence of these beliefs everywhere causes people in society to become disrespectful, and increases the number of these types of people. It brings more aggressive arguments amongst people, poses dangers in going out, and possibly creates a society entrenched with racism. In the long run, there would be more fights with people shot dead, increased theft rate, and extreme misogyny.
Looking at the world, some short term effects would include the creation of a world based on sex, money and fame, an increase in violence, increases in crime rates, homicide rates, and a globe raided with disrespectful and dangerous people. fighting, and very little respect for women. Long term effects would be economic disparity, assassinations, immense cruelty, heightened drug and sex trade, law enforcement would become either corrupt or useless, lack of safety, and the worldwide degradation of the idea of a woman.…
