One Month After the Pope’s Visit to Cameroon: Unity Rhetoric vz Ground Reality

-
Image
The red carpet is rolled up. The speeches are over. The Pope spoke of peace, unity, and justice in Cameroon. One month later, the question isn’t what he said. It’s what changed. Politicians count on this: say the right words, let the moment pass, and hope people forget. But faith without action is empty rhetoric. You can’t preach unity in Yaoundé while war still rages in the Northwest and Southwest. That’s not the Gospel. That’s performance. Jesus put it plainly: “ Practice what you preach” [Matt. 23]. And He summed the entire Law and Prophets in one line: “ Do to others what you would have them do to you” [Matt. 7:12]. That’s the standard. Not applause lines. Not photo ops. No Justice, No Peace In my last article, “ No Justice, No Peace,” I argued that real peace demands truth about the past. The Church endorsed the Doctrine of Discovery. Papal Bulls justified slavery. Christian institutions stood by as Africa was carved up and colonized.  So I’ll say it again:   No Peace without Ju...
