And "Liberal Christianity" Is Dying Exactly Why, Again?
Gee... I wonder if'n I can figger this one out
National Council of Churches Pres.: Jesus Never said Anything About Homosexuality or Abortion
Forget about traditional morality—Christianity should focus on eradicating poverty, protecting the environment and ending the war in Iraq, according to the general secretary of the National Council of Churches, Dr. Bob Edgar.
“Jesus never said one word about homosexuality, never said one word about civil marriage or abortion,” said Dr. Edgar to CBS News at a recent gathering of liberal Christian leaders in Washington.
The gathering was the latest effort by the “religious left” to gain back some of the political power the group enjoyed during the 60’s and early 70’s. 30 years ago liberal religious leaders used their political influence to lead demonstrations against social injustices such as civil rights abuses and the Vietnam War. Once those issues left the spotlight, liberal Christianity lost focus and faded to the background.
Hell, a blind man can see the problem here. They care more about the salvation of society instead of the salvation of souls.

Is Dr. Edgar Catholic? Who cares what this manifest heretic has to say?
