Can

 


we get back to doing these kinds of things?

Please?

Things that actually make a difference in peoples lives?


religion and the wrong defense of abortion rights


"The most important effect of politically mobilized religion in American public life was contributing to the abolition of slavery. The Social Gospel movement of the late 19th century fought alcoholism, sweatshops, decaying tenements, business monopolies and foreign wars. Organized Catholics helped push the New Deal to the left. In the 1960s, religious groups opposed the Vietnam War. The civil rights movement of the 1960s began in churches, led by the Rev. Martin Luther King. Religion, in short, has been good for American democracy. If history shows anything, it is that in this country the secular left can accomplish little without religious allies." 


Well ya got some over here my friend, "religious allies of the secular left" that is.

Looking at how far we are removed from that right now as the body of Christ in this country is sickening. Literally repulsive at this point.



PERIOD!

Amen!
