3. Religious Left web sites
Thanks for these, and the others. Can't wait to check them out. Great thing to do on a "snowed in" evening. Hmm? SNOWED...does anyone remember when that meant someone had Bull sh---ed us? To besure, that's what the shrub has done!;>)

4. Stupid me
I looked and I thought UCC and UUA were the only liberal, religious (all, folks) organizations. I may join our UU church and promote anti-Evangelical goals by helping others when the Evangelicals are busy telling them Hell awaits.

7. "Helping others while the evangelicals tell them hell awaits."
Amen to that. I know a bunch of evangelicals. They're good people, but they don't bother doing anything good in the world. To them, this life doesn't matter; only the next one does. So, all they do is try to convert people to Christianity to get them "saved," and don't bother doing things like feeding to starving, helping the poor, sheltering the homeless and clothing the naked -- the things Jesus said to do.

From LBN "Jailed Nun Won't Pay Missile Silo Fine." http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x1280802#1281129

Sister Jackie published her statement about not paying the fine at the web site for Jonah House. http://www.jonahhouse.org/index.htm
