religious activists — especially our ministers, priests, rabbis, and imams — are vital to our movement. But to expect them alone to create a moral counterforce to the destructive fear mongering of the right is not only unrealistic, it’s an expectation rooted in abdication of our own role as moral agents.

The Left doesn't seem to realize that it is laughable for them to make 'moral' pronouncements. It is obvious the majority of them don't believe in God and so they consider whatever they desire to be 'moral'. They are bowing down to idols made by the hand of man.

They are so used to bending the language they think just injecting the word into their argument makes their stance legitimate.

It's hard to take someone seriously that villifies her opponents with the phrase 'destructive fear mongering of the right'. That's reducing them to a cartoony stereotype, making them less than human.

Liberal values represent the essence of the world’s great religions.

Oh, yeah, the world's great religions are heavily into godless hedonism and selfish irresponsibility.
