Andreas,

Of course Jesus and the Apostles fed the hungry, clothed the needy and ministered to the sick and so should we. It is practical love.

But Jesus and the Apostles were also 'tough guys', never afraid to speak out against injustices, never afraid of confrontation when coming to the aid of the oppressed, the downtrodden and the victims of wrongs.

When I see people such as the RC Cardinal O'Brien in national newspapers earlier this year, speaking out against abortion, in the strongest possible terms (see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6706743.stm) I can only feel great admiration.
