What the hell is a “progressive Christian”?

One thing about the left, they know to play games in the court of public opinion, because that’s where it counts.

Someone like my idiot sister who, while not saved, preaches the "social gospel" and usually believes they understand scripture better than those of us who are "fundies". Remember Obama saying "I am my brother's keeper."? Yeh. people who actually buy that kind of thing.

Progressive Christianity

Liberal Christianity

Social Gospel

“Progressive Christian” is almost an oxymoron. Many of them have “progressed” so far that they’ve lost sight of all religious foundations.

Someone who attends a church that’s little more than a social club that misuses God’s name as a prop.

To give you an idea, I know a woman who considers herself one, and she has a bumper sticker saying, "Liberal Christianity...Christianity Without The Hate." I don't know what Bible she reads, but she thinks Christians who oppose gay marriage are haters.

Cognitive dissonance ... you can be one or the other, but not both simultaneously.

I know I'm going out on a limb here, but a pretty strong one, nonetheless.
