The comments Bono gave at the recent Nation Prayer Breakfast plead our government to acknowledge the biblical call to justice. Many,including Bono himself, have questioned his right to make such a call. But too often those of us who live in a country of wealth and democracy forget that millions in this world have no voice - they need as loud as a voice as possible to speak for them. And in this day and age a rock star fits the bill. I appreciated his reminder that a country can make laws but that God's law is higher. I highly recommend reading the prepared (apparently there was some ad-libbing) transcript of what he said
