1. Thanks. I hope there is someone left in the Christian Community..
who hasn't gone over to the dark side.

2. That is good!
Thanks.
one of my favorite replies:
I am an evangelical Christian, and I can’t ignore thousands of verses in the Bible on subject, which is poverty. I say at every stop, “Fighting poverty’s a moral value, too.” There’s a whole generation of young Christians who care about the environment. That’s their big issue. Protecting God’s creation, they would say, is a moral value, too. And, for a growing number of Christians, the ethics of war—how and when we go to war, whether we tell the truth about going to war—is a religious and moral issue as well.

3. I know...
this is stuff that I've been thinking for a long time (I'm an evangelical too) but didn't necessarily know there were others out there like me. I'm glad Wallis is getting some airtime, so to speak.
