When we are born into life, we come into it screaming and naked, defenseless before a cruel world and into a cold society that often has no basic respect for life or even the vaguest idea of God. And society has basically proven that it does not care. Even Christian societies have problems just because we do not live in Heaven but rather a man-made world of pain and confusion. Until we can take in our bare hands and make it into a society that cares for each one of its members, we will never be strictly in the image of God.
