He’s exposed their game. He’s shining a light on them and they don’t like it.

He’s doing what no one else in television is doing. God protect him.

Of course it’s not a “faith based group” it’s a socialist Soros funded smear group.

Beck blew them out of the water on his radio show this morning.

The forces of evil do not like Glenn.

God Bless Glenn and protect him as he fights for the truth and for America.

The premise of this blog is wrong. Beck is right.

He is saying is that this so-called “social justice” gospel attempts to turn over our personal responsibility for good works to the collective, i.e. the government.

It’s a socialist/Marxist ploy to twist scripture.

Jesus spoke often of our responsibility to take care of each other, to help our fellow man. But he was NEVER talking to government. He was talking to individuals, preaching individual responsibility.

This article is socialist propaganda.

Beck's anti-Christian-social-justice message

Since when is he anti-Christian? The social justice message needs to be exposed for what it is. Reallocation of wealth, hand in hand with the socialists....

What is Faithful America?
Faithful America is an online community of tens of thousands of citizens motivated by faith to take action on the pressing moral issues of our time... In service to this core commitment, we seek to:

...prevent the catastrophic effects of climate change

Faithful America was founded on June 15, 2004, when Americans of faith raised $36,000 to place an advertisement on Arabic-language satellite television expressing regret to Muslims for the abuse committed by Americans at Abu Ghraib prison.

...Since its foundation, Faithful America has mobilized its tens of thousands of members to take action on issues ranging from poverty to health care to Iraq

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.

“Faithful America—a multi-faith justice organization”

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

Losers

Their web page lists their address as "1101 Vermont Avenue, 9th Floor" in DC.

They share a floor with "America Votes" and "America Coming Together", both lefty front groups. This appears to be a lefty front group masquerading as a Christian group.

They have me convinced. I no longer look to Christ for salvation, instead I am supposed to rely on societal, collective salvation. Yeppers.....

Is anyone else bothered by the fact that they took out an ad on Al Jezerra to apologize for Abu Graib? WTF?!?!? Anyone who buys this crap is dumber than a box of rocks & should study their faith a bit more closely.

Here ya go: http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=7291

Priorities, Inc. is the parent organization of TrueMajority, and describes itself as "an unusual mix of citizens -- from former military brass and businesspeople to religious leaders and ordinary citizens -- who believe America can have a more humane government." Priorities, Inc. condemns the "wasting [of] billions of dollars on nuclear weapons, Star Wars, [and] other outmoded weapons, while … one out of every six of our own kids live in poverty and millions of children worldwide die each year from hunger-related illnesses." Through its persuasion of political leaders, the organization seeks to "increase America's investment in programs that benefit children (schools, health care, Head Start, etc.) by cutting Cold War weapons systems and shifting the savings." By Priorities' estimate, such a reallocation of resources would make an extra $60 billion available each year for social welfare spending.

Priorities, Inc. focuses its activities chiefly in the target markets of Iowa and New Hampshire, because of the large role those states play in American politics. The Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire primary have evolved into major indicators of political candidates' chances for success in securing the nomination of either the Republican or Democratic Party.

Priorities, Inc. is composed of three subdivisions:

Military Advisory Committee (MAC): Membership in this committee includes a dozen retired military leaders, among them Vice Admiral John J. Shanahan; former Assistant Secretary of Defense Lawrence Korb, and onetime CIA Director Stansfield Turner. The MAC formulates and defines Priorities, Inc.'s positions on military-related matters.

Business Leaders for Sensible Priorities (BLSP): This division of Priorities, Inc. is made up of 750 members, including the present or former CEOs of Bell Industries, Black Entertainment Television, Eastman Kodak, Goldman Sachs, Men's Warehouse, and Phillips Van Heusen, as well as notables like Paul Newman and Ted Turner. BLSP's stated mission is "to change U.S. budget priorities to reflect a national commitment to education, healthcare, energy independence, job training and deficit reduction -- at no additional taxpayer expense -- by eliminating funding for unneeded Cold War era weapons systems."

Faithful America: In partnership with the National Council of Churches, this "online activist network among people of faith who share our values … combines the e-organizing techniques pioneered by TrueMajority with the outreach capability of the Council's 40 denominations and thousands of religious institutions."

In March 2006, Priorities, Inc. lent its support to H.R. 4898, legislation intended "to reallocate funds toward sensible priorities such as improved children's education, increased children's access to health care, expanded job training, and increased energy efficiency and conservation through a reduction of wasteful defense spending, and for other purposes."This bill was sponsored by Representatives Lynn Woolsey, Barbara Lee, Raul Grijalva, Dennis Kucinich, Danny Davis, Jerrold Nadler, Jim McDermott, Major Owens, Jim McGovern, William Lacy Clay, John Conyers, Michael Honda, Sheila Jackson Lee, Pete Stark, and Jan Schakowsky, and Cynthia McKinney. All are members of the Progressive Caucus in the House of Representatives.
