Claiming “Three decades ago liberal religious leaders had a powerful influence on politics. In the 1960s and 70s they led demonstrations against civil rights abuses and the war in Vietnam.” The story notes “The Christian left is focusing on: Fighting poverty, Protecting the environment, Ending the war in Iraq.”

What's weird is that you attempt to discredit this idea without even truly thinking about it, you simply assert that their is some sort of agenda...well how can their not be an agenda...doesn't everything we do in life depend on some sort of agenda or intention or reason for doing it...and I have said this before and I will say it again, I am not a Christian but from my understanding of the bible and the teachings of Jesus...Jesus was very much in line with the teachings of the left, specifically when it regards things such as social values and equality and many of the other things that makes the left care about class differences. I will say it now and I will say it forever, the teachings of Jesus were WAYYYY more socialist and neo-CON! You are jest going to have to come to the realization that the Neo-Conservative agenda isnt the most fundamentally Christian way of life, aside from holding on to abortion and gay issues, it seems that the rest of the agenda is SKEWED WAYYY towards the original teachings of your religion.
I believe you are reading your own ideals into Christ's teachings.
Weezie - please post ONE teaching of Christ that is socialist ... provide all the references and be sure to have a solid basis for context.
You've stated your point - now's your shance to prove it.
...crickets chirp...
