Jim Wallis needs to be more Christian than liberal, but that would require him to give up his faith in government and working his way to heaven...

If only he could marry . . . oh wait. If only he wasn’t being told what to do from somebody else . . . oh wait. If only they’d let women . . . oh wait. It’s almost as if this disease has negatively affected all of Christianity and not just the Church.

"If white Christians in America acted more Christian than white when it came to race, black parents would be less fearful for their children," said Wallis."

World class cognitive dissonance and racism.

I've heard of "Sojourners" before ...

Actually, I expect we were all primed for a load of prime horse manure by the headline.

What is “acting Christian”? Is that the same as blind to reality and stupid to boot, too?

"Young black lives are worth less than young white lives in our criminal justice system and that's been painfully shown over and over again."

That's true, in the sense that black felons who victimize black victims are not kept off the streets, but get probation, parole, community corrections, suspended sentences, plea bargains, early releases, etc. so they can go out and victimize their black neighbors again.

You see these felons on the street with repeat, violent arrest records as long as your arm, and you think, "the System is sure as he!! not serious about protecting the lives and property of the Black community."

“In 2010, Wallis admitted to accepting money for Sojourners from philanthropist George Soros after initially denying having done so. When conservative writer Marvin Olasky pointed this out, and that Soros also financed groups supporting abortion, atheism, and same-sex marriage, in a WORLD magazine column, Wallis said Olasky “lies for a living”; he subsequently apologized to Olasky for the comments. In 2011, Wallis acknowledged that Sojourners had received another $150,000.00 from Soros’ Open Society Foundation.” - Wiki on Jim Wallis

Christians who put faith ahead of race would not be afraid to take on tough racial issues like the police shooting of an unarmed teen in Ferguson with their peers and fight for equality, Wallis asserted.

Meaningless gobbledegook.
