My mother, who voted for socialist candidate Norman Thomas in her first election and who was very active in Christian churches (first Presbyterian and then Baptist) throughout her life, would have really applauded your defense of the compatibility of Christianity with progressive/left views of social justice.Travelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17165894397478630565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026902214203492779.post-47933973643843761092011-05-17T11:22:25.837-04:002011-05-17T11:22:25.837-04:00Dude, I stand in awe of your education.Dude, I stand in awe of your education.Cletis https://www.blogger.com/profile/01865557276496148455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026902214203492779.post-2085097226470096272011-05-17T10:31:01.075-04:002011-05-17T10:31:01.075-04:00Ulysses, this is a pretty awesome post!
