At least by looking at their home page they appear to make a lot of sense.

  I read a good share of the screed posted.  Some of it made good sense..common sense and Biblical sense.  Sure, we are to care for the helpless and poor, historically the worthwhile churches did just that and many still do.  Unfortunately, government has hogged up nearly every bit of available capital which charitable people heretofore gave through the churches, to the poor.
  This leftist movement is nothing new, Rauchenbush and others in the 19th century, when they had lost their faith..and started what has become known as the "social gospel", replacing the Great Commission with a PC thought process.
  Somehow, they didn't realize that proper evangelization followed by discipleship training would take care of many problems, including the needy.
   I normally refrain from judging another's status with God and I won't now..but position of these birds I do question..  They start out the 4th paragraph with a statement which declares;
         
" See, it wasn’t just Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection that matter."
 
  Anyone who can dismiss Jesus' sacrifice so easily, loses credibility.  Then to accept the abomination of "gay marriage" (read Romans ch1) and consider abortion as acceptable (Prov 31:8,9)  Why should we pay them any heed ?
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)

Definitely makes one wonder what is important to them. I think the Jewish faith has a similar belief as pertains to Jesus.
Cool...I like them....will look in there more. I think they got a few things figured out, like what Christianity actually is.....and why there is a New Covenant in the first place.....

The wonderment continues, not the ringing endorsement I would seek, but an insight into who they appeal to.

  EQ;
  They seem to be the type who are outrageously eclectic....commonly called "cafeteria Christians" when it comes to the Bible...
..." I like that..but not that..I'll take a helping of this, I like it..but I don't want any of that..it's too strong for my taste"

I do not see in anyway that they were dismissing sacrifices of Jesus, they were saying that how he demonstrated living his life was important also.

It's sad that so many believe in freedoms, yet criticize anyone or any organization that does not fit into their perception as to what  and how things should be. Alot of hypocrisy.

     IG. Good post Sir. Real Christians do not accept those abominable acts. Liberal Christians who believe in murdering babies and homosexual marriage, then say they follow Jesus?? No such critter. POWDERMAN.  ::) ::)

Powder says=Liberal Christians who believe in murdering babies and homosexual marriage, then say they follow Jesus??
I know many liberal Christians who believe in neither practice. But than again this is another example of ---you don't believe in what I believe so you are a baby killer.

The reason the religious debate section was eliminated is because several of you are either incapable or unwilling to discuss religion in any manner other than to attack and belittle those whose beliefs are different from yours.  You will not bring that toxic ignorance to the Politics section.
