Mostly everyone! LOL

I love this quote: “Wallis’s enormous confidence in the degree to which his own political judgments are the demands of the faith is unwarranted...

It’s time for American churches (and theologians) to reconsider their claims to authority on matters of politics and policy. The church is charged with the proclamation of the gospel and the whole counsel of God to a suffering and sinful world. The more we waste our “ecclesiastical capital” advocating policies that have little obvious relation with that mission, the more we undermine our own cause.”
