Against Slavery
"Faith is the most assured way against slavery,
because it teaches that liberty is for ALL."
~ St. D. Comboni
Saint Comboni reminds us that faith, at its truest, is never a private consolation but a public force for dignity. When faith proclaims that every person is created and loved by God, it dismantles all hierarchies that justify domination.
Slavery thrives on exclusion, on the lie that freedom belongs to some and not to others, while faith insists that liberty is universal, indivisible, and non-negotiable. In this sense, faith does not merely oppose slavery; it educates the heart to recognize freedom as a shared vocation and a responsibility owed to every human being.
