He was talking specifically about religious people who approach politics from the left. There are virtually no people on the political left who approach politics as a religious act. Their political philosophies may be informed by their religions, as are all of ours, but there is no movement compared to the religious right, barely a hint of it, and that hint is only in response to the right trying to co-opt Christianity. Liberal Christianity is collegial and non-dogmatic as opposed to the absolutism and fundamentalism on the right. There is no political agenda in that other that to resist absolutism and fundamentalism. Goodness, here I am arguing liberalism and Christianity, neither of which is my own. <g>
