The baby of Rianna Cleary died after she was forced to give birth alone while in prison. The anger that such injustices arouse can lead to changes to the system so that they do not occur again.
This is exactly the same as Jesus throwing the money changers out of the temple, except for that being extremely trivial and inappropriate in comparison.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, I’m going on holiday. Yes, for two whole weeks I’m giving up bishoping and having a well deserved rest. Sadly, you won’t have me on TFTD for that long time, but I’m still available on social media.
