Thanks for posing this article. The chance is that a genuine pacifist-socialist-green platform combined with a consistent opposition to abortion, gay marriage, porn etc constitutes what many East Asian and minority evangelical Christians in the US consider as the "conservative Christian" position. They believe "political conservatism on economics and WOT is theological liberalism/apostasy". I had been there before and I grew up with this particular teaching.

Ping to dsc, okie, Quix, and others for reference and comments!

Thanks for the ping. Fascinating article.

More than anything, Wallis strikes me as a left-wing eccentric -- a sixties hippie who took his spirituality too seriously. I don't know whether being pro-life qualifies as eccentric or apostate on the left, though.

Philosophically, wouldn't he belong in the garden variety European school of Christian Socialism? The socialism, pacifism and anti-Americanism are all of a piece with this.

So-called "social justice" is Satan's way of turning empathy to evil purposes.

If it's defined as "justice," it can be enforced. If it's enforced it's not voluntary. And if it ain't voluntary, it don't count, bunky.

Leftist whackos like this one think God wants them to put a gun to people's heads and force them to feed the needy. Or, at least, they pretend to think that. Frankly, I doubt the honesty of any leftist who claims to be a Christian.
