Progressive Christians form group `to reclaim our faith'
With the stated goal of reclaiming the issue of faith from the Christian right, a new political organization for religious progressives launched Wednesday. According to its statement of purpose, "The Christian Alliance for Progress, founded firmly on the teachings of the Gospel, will stand for pursuing economic justice; responsible environmental stewardship; equality for gays and lesbians; honoring the sanctity of childbearing decisions through effective prevention, not criminalization of abortion; seeking peace, not war; and achieving health care for all Americans."
