Henri Nouwen: Upper-Middle Class
on Friday, July 8, 2022Henri Nouwen Money Quote saying the middle and upper class help justify tough moral choices based on finances. Henri Nouwen said:
“One of the temptations of upper-middle class life is to create sharp edges of our moral sensitivities and allows a comfortable confusions about sin and virtue. The difference between rich and poor is not that the rich sin is more than the poor, that the rich find it easier to call sin a virtue. When the poor sin, they call it sin; when they see holiness, they identify it as such. The intuitive clarity is often absent from the wealthy, and that absence easily leads to the atrophy of the moral sense” — Henri Nouwen
