Abstract	This is a response to Michael J. Boyle's "To Act with Justice and Love Tenderly: Exploring the Church's Call for Inclusion." While Janice L. Benton agrees with his suggestions of self-reflection, retreats, and guided explorations of the Church documents, she also recommends gathering the perspectives of individuals with disabilities by talking with them and reading blogs and articles from disability-rights advocates, reflecting a more inclusive dynamic of working together versus the helper and helped mentality. Also while he offers a thoughtful conclusion to his article, she would add to urge Catholic school teachers, administrators, and other personnel to see the student as you see any other student without focusing or dwelling on the disability and to remember that well-documented Church teaching is without equivocation--all means all (Racunas, 2017). To her, there is no alternative to inclusion. [For "To Act with Justice and Love Tenderly: Exploring the Church's Call for Inclusion," see EJ1286835.] (ERIC).
