Wow, 100,000 "faithful" Americans!

Encouraging, that means only 1 out of 3,000 is an outright Socialist/Progressive! LOL

Let 'em have it, Glenn!

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.

Being described as a faith-based group would seem to imply that religion is probably not part of it. The “faith” is political, not religious.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!!!!

The parent organization is Faith in Public Life (FPL)

Co-founded by Jim Wallis of Sojourners
Was originally established to counter the “religious right”

Founded in 2006, Faith in Public Life (FPL) is a tax-exempt charity which was originally launched to strengthen the progressive evangelical movement....

FPL’s sister organization is Faithful America... FPL also has a close relationship with John Podesta's Center for American Progress (CAP) - funded in part by George Soros.

BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY DOES NOT TEACH A “SOCIAL JUSTICE!” Nor did the Lord proclaim a “Social Gospel!”

BECK is RIGHT.

“Faithful America” is neither Faithful the Christ NOR to America.

I don't wager money.

None-the-less, faithful America states right on their own web page at http://www.faithfulamerica.org/about/ that "In August 2007 Faith in Public Life (FPL) became host of this vibrant online community."

At the FPL web site it states that "The plan took root after a May 2009 meeting Buffett and Gates set up for a small group of the super-rich, including Oprah Winfrey, Ted Turner, George Soros and L.A. philanthropist Eli Broad."
