No one should be surprised at this. We’re at the top of the arc of the Gramscian “long march through the institutions,” and those institutions include most, if not all mainstream religious institutions. Pick any chruch website and you’ll find yourself at most only a couple of clicks away from doctrinal declarations of commitments to social and economic justice, redistribution of your wealth civilian disarmament. You’ll even find appeals to stop global warming on some of them.
More importantly, listen to the messages you’re getting from the pulpit. When you hear those leftist tropes, it’s time to get up and leave. The man in the pulpit is serving another Master.

Social Justice and Liberation Theology are the two biggest dangers to Christian churches.
Watching some of my beloved Roman Catholic Church leadership adhere to this garbage breaks my heart.

The “religious left” trying to close the “god gap” this election.
It’s been the stated Rat ploy since they lost the 2004 election.
They cast political issues (like Obamacare) in religious terms.
Except if we are to fund socialized medicine because “I am my brother’s keeper”, then I am not required to tithe my taxes to government for religious purposes because of the “establishment” clause of the first amendment.
Besides, look at how Barack treats his own brother living in povery in Kenya.

Yes, Soros it is. These folks jump from board to board, as Beck has been detailing for the past 1&1/2 years.
Dr. New has notified me Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good receives funding from George Soros..
http://www.jillstanek.com/political-antilife-bias/catholics-in-al.html.
John Gehring, Senior Writer and Outreach Coordinator John spent almost ten years as an education reporter before leaving newspapers to blend his passion for writing, politics and faith. He joins FPL after three years at Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good, where he helped broaden the media narrative about Catholicism and connected reporters with inspiring social justice leaders doing work that is too often ignored..
Nick Sementelli, Communications Associate Nick joined Faith in Public Life because he believes that working for justice in the public sphere is the best way to put his faith into action. As communications associate, he appreciates the flexibility his position gives him to work in so many different program areas, but particularly enjoys writing for the Bold Faith Type blog..
Before joining FPL Nick worked at Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good. He first came to DC in 2005 to study at Georgetown University where he majored in Culture and Politics. While in school he worked as a research associate for the Berkeley Center for Religion, Politics and World Affairs and interned at Beaconfire Consulting, helping non-profit clients with web design and online campaigns..

More likely Beck is.
He’s just not believable.

Yeah, right. You messed up my interest in your organization by using the word justice as part of your mission.

He was talking to individuals, preaching individual responsibility.Nope. He was speaking to his people as a group. God has always been about redeeming a people, not a bunch of isolated individuals.
Ephesians 3:10 "His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms"

The Sex Positive agenda sees nothing wrong with abortion, homosexuality or pornography.
They seek no moral judgements over ANY sexual pairings regardless of sex, age, relation, marital status, number, or species of partner(s).
And like the Soros fronts and those who’ve worked their way within church hierarchies to hijack the message to push for “socialist” justice, you will find close ties to SEICUS, Planned Parenthood, and other Sex Positive advocacy groups within our centers of academia, public health, and hospitals.

Absolutely!
Jesus did not say “Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's (pay your taxes), and he will render unto the Lord on your behalf (government social policy as a proxy for Christian charity).”
‘Caesar’ will do what ‘Caesar’ thinks is important.
We must do what our Lord Jesus the Christ thinks is important.

the Pacific Institute for Community Organizations (PICO), a progressive national network of faith-based organizations, is once again taking money from the Bishops CCHD fund to support the Presidents financial reforms. I refuse to give to the CCHD (Catholic Campaign for Human Developement) specifically because it uses charity money for political/demogogic reasons. As a deacon in the Church, I also advise anyone who asks to give to local charities that have no political ties. Give to known charities that give ALL of the donation to those in need.
I am so sick of some Bishops pushing this liberal agenda by appealing to the masses good will and hoodwinking those who are not aware of where their donations are going.

They expressed outrage at Abu Ghraib under US control (while the guilty were already undergoing prosecution) but never bothered to comment on the abuses at Abu Ghraib under Saddam or those that go on there now under Iraqi control.
Phony concern, Abu Ghraib was all about getting the public riled up to kick out President Bush. The protesters really didn't care about treatment of prisoners.
President Bush meets with Iraqis Amputated by Saddam Hussein (ABC News - Ann Compton June 2, 2004)
President Bush met with a group of Iraqi citizens this morning whose hands were amputated by Saddam Hussein's regime in the Abu Ghraib prison and then recently replaced with American prosthetics by a Texas foundation....The doctor also called the amputations "nothing less than torture. They were poorly done, with minimal anesthesia."
