It’s not hard to find articles about socially responsible investing, or SRI, in financial publications and even mainstream media these days. The reason is that by the end of 2005, there was over $2.3 trillion invested using this approach in the United States. Numbers that big are bound to attract some attention.

From Wall Street to Main Street the pain of the sub-prime debacle is being felt far and wide. Already, write-downs by big banks and brokerage firms like Citigroup and Merrill Lynch collectively top $120 billion and are expected to double in size before the debacle ends.

We work, we earn a wage, we pay our bills. What we have left over, we
can give to charity or we can invest - planning for our future and that
of our children. Often when we invest, we use the gains that we
receive from those investments to make charitable gifts to our church
or other causes that we feel are important.
This brings to mind the question of whether or not it matters where our
returns come from if we donate them to the church or other causes
promoting human dignity. In other words, does the end justify the
means?

Have you ever thought about how many Catholics are in this country? You might be surprised to know that the number is somewhere in the neighborhood of 65 million! Yes, its true - Catholics make up almost 25% of the population of the United States.
When you consider that only 40% of the population voted in the last presidential election, the potential influence of Catholics in our country is astounding. While the idea of influencing politics immediately comes to mind, there is another less obvious area of life where Catholics can have a big influence - the economy.
