"The Twelve Tribes of American Politics"

12tribes_1

If you watch television news you might think that all Christians are conservatives worshiping at the alter of George W. Bush. The truth is much more revealing. Beliefnet.com has just published a new study on their site that shows that the religious right and the religious left have equal numbers in America. Religious America is actually divided up into twelve distinct groups and not one of them can claim to speak for all people of faith. Check out their study and see for yourself.


Kerry Took Charge Tonight

Challengers always have the more difficult task in presidential debates. I’ve been watching these events with great interest going back to the Reagan-Mondale showdown of 1984. John Kerry did more than just hold his own against George W. Bush. The senator took charge early on and defined the terms of the debate. It clearly was a referendum on the failed Iraq strategy perused by this president. Kerry offered a foreign policy vision that was more engaged and energetic than the Bush go-it-alone doctrine. My sense is that voters will respond well to his message. There was no knockout ala the Benson–Quayle 1988 debate (which would have been nice). But I think there is no question that John Kerry gave a much needed lift to his campaign.

There was more both candidates could have offered. I appreciated the questions on Darfur and Russia. Sadly, the ongoing genocide in Darfur has been largely overlooked during the campaign. Check out the White House web site and search for the name Darfur. A total of 40 possible entries on the crisis show up. Gay marriage: 848. This president hasn’t used his office to address the difficult issues. Instead he has focused on dividing the American people for political purposes. It was unfortunate that neither candidate was able to offer a fuller and richer debate on issues outside of Iraq and North Korea.


"Religious ethics clash with loan practices"

Have you ever seen one of those quickie loan shops that dot the street corners of economically depressed areas of town? They offer fast loans with your paycheck or car as collateral at incredibly high interest rates. Yesterday The Christian Science Monitor ran a good article about how religious ethics clash with loan practices in America.

Many of the world's major religions address the question of lending. Most view lending as moral only if the lender is sincere in desiring to help meet the borrower's essential needs - rather than helping the borrower to indulge in capricious desires - and also if the lender helps the borrower move toward self-sufficiency.

The article also discusses reforms advanced by John Kerry that have been embraced by some in the religious community. Quotes in the article also highlight how Judaism and Islam see debt issues within their own religious context.

Jim Wallis Visits Eden Theological Seminary

P1010040_wallisJim Wallis was on the campus of Eden Theological Seminary today. Wallis is the editor of Sojourners Magazine and convener of Call to Renewal. He first spoke to a group of progressive clergy in the St. Louis area that have been organizing on the Eden campus and later preached during morning chapel services for the seminary community. I have been fortunate to meet Wallis on several occasions in Portland and Washington, DC and was able to spend time driving him around town this morning. The Rev. Dr. Michael Kinnamon worked to arrange his visit.

P1010041_wallis2_1There were two important issues that he lifted up today. First, Call to Renewal will be launching a bus tour of swing states next week. The tour is designed to put the issue of poverty before the voters as they make choices in November about which candidates to support. Call to Renewal is a Christian anti-poverty advocacy group that draws their membership from across the theological and political spectrum. Wallis hopes the tour will remind voters that poverty and how we address it is a religious issue for Christians to consider.

P1010042_wallis3Wallis also asked people to take action and write letters to President Bush and the head of the Republican National Committee asking them to apologize and denounce the mailings sent from the RNC to West Virginia and Arkansas voters telling them that Democrats would ban the Bible if elected in November.

Faith-Based Bloggers Tackle the Election, Political Issues

Chuckcurrieblog2aReligion News Service (part of Newhouse News Service) just published a story on the role “faith-based” bloggers are playing in this election. This blog is one of those featured. Daniel Burke writes:

Equal parts soapbox, confessional and church social, the blogs of religious folk are not easily categorized. On Monday, someone may post a lengthy exegesis of a favorite Bible passage, on Tuesday a screed against Democrats and on Wednesday, a picture of his cat.

Blogs, or "Web logs," resemble personal Internet pages. But advances in computer technology are making such blogs public trading posts in the marketplace of ideas. Bloggers post comments on their pages instantaneously, provide links to articles and other Web sites, and hold running conversations between people on multiple continents.

Like incense in a mammoth cathedral, religion permeates the blogosphere.

Since this is an election year, it's only natural that many faith-based bloggers have gotten political.

Burke profiles several conservative religious blogs, including that of self-described “fundamentalist” Jason Steffens. Steffens uses his blog to promote George W. Bush and pro-life causes. A blog by Kathy Shaidle is also highlighted.

Progressive blogs are represented by two of the usual suspects:

Terry Mattingly, a veteran religion reporter and professor who studies the intersection of the media and religion, contributes to the blog "getreligion.org." He said that more conservatives are led to blogging because they "feel more cut off from the mainstream media." There are, however, a number of religious liberals who blog.

"The Village Gate," formerly called "The Right Christians," is an online community of religious progressives that "serves as an electronic gathering place for those who seek to re-energize the progressive tradition," according to a posting on the Web site by the Rev. Alan Brill, a Lutheran pastor in South Carolina. It can be found at therightchristians.org.

And Chuck Currie, who is training to be a United Church of Christ minister at the Eden Theological Seminary in Webster Groves, Mo., said that blogging is an important part of his ministry to the homeless and disenfranchised.

Currie contributes several hours a day to his blog, chuckcurrie.blogs.com, which has been live for about a year. Recent posts include an interview with the Rev. Bob Edgar of the National Council of Churches, prayers for peace and reports that Sen. Lincoln Chafee, R-R.I., might not vote for Bush.

Though his wife thinks his devotion to blogging is "semi-insane," Currie said that he will continue to blog, if only "to show that there is a difference" between liberal and conservative Christians.

Sometimes it feels a bit futile, like "a crazy person standing on the street corner and shouting," Currie said. "But then, maybe a few people will stop to listen for a while."

That’s me, the crazy guy out there shouting on the street.

New Feedback From The Blogosphere

Every once and awhile I like to check-in with bloggers and read e-mails to see how people are responding to my site. As always, the reviews are mixed.

This site was one of the first to comment on the story that the Republican National Committee had sent out flyers claiming Democrats wanted to ban the Bible. United Methodist Bishop William Boyd Grove also responded on this site to the news. Here is a sampling of what people have written in response:

A UMC Bishop has responded through Chuck Currie’s blog to an advert claiming that electing John Kerry would lead to the banning of the Bible

The Republican ad being distributed in West Virginia, implying that the election of John Kerry would lead to the “banning of the Bible” is outrageous, and represents demagoguery of the worst sort. No one connected to the distribution of that ad could possibly claim fidelity to the Bible for themselves!

Say it brother!

I wonder if I could get a bishop guest-blogging?

- connexions

I've been in a bit of a news blackout since arriving here, so it was just in perusing my bloglist this afternoon that I discovered the preposterous news out of West Virginia: The Republican National Committee is now suggesting that if liberals are elected, we'll up and ban the Bible.

I'm still in the sputter-and-flap-hands-wildly-about phase regarding the absurdity and sleaziness of this groundless allegation, so I'm unable to address it with any kind of skill. For that, I point you toward Chuck Currie and Becky Klemme. Good lord, ban the Bible?? Gimme a break!

- Treading Water

West Virgina Republicans have sent out a mailing claiming that Democrats will take away their Bibles if they win the election. Wow! Congratulations to the Republican National Committee for being a voice of reason and integrity in this election. Oh wait. This campaign is dishonest fear-mongering. What was I thinking?

Read Chuck Currie's comment on this campaign. Chuck is much more calm and insightful than I.

I just wonder - how far will the Republicans go to convince voters that God is on their side? Campaign ads featuring W and Jesus?

- The Faithful Skeptic

Just this week I commented on a new report out by a conservative group which claimed that the National Council of Churches and other mainline Christian groups concentrate their advocacy efforts against Israel. This, they argued, showed that progressive Christians are anti-Semitic. My response came under fire from one group (UCCtruths) whose only mission is to attack the United Church of Christ and from one blogger (who reads my site nearly every day and comments on almost everything).

September 28, 2004 - The National Council of Churches has responded to the blistering report by the Institute on Religion and Democracy on "Human Rights Advocacy in the Mainline Protestant Churches". But it's not much of a response... it doesn't challenge any of the facts that IRD is reporting. Instead, it tries to dismiss the report by painting the IRD as a politically motivated group - which it could very well be - but so is the National Council of Churches. Politically motivated or not, at least the IRD report is rooted in an analysis of facts - something which is completely missing from the NCC response.

As usual, this point is completely missed by denomination cheerleaders like Chuck Currie, whose purely political blog (if you consider a site that's full of recycled copy that lacks any original thought a "blog") doesn't refute any of the points made by IRD.

- UCCtruths

Blogger and UCC seminarian Chuck Currie (from whom the Edgar statement is taken–I couldn't find it on the NCC site) piles on with some holy whapping of his own:

IRD “monitors” church bodies and ecumenical groups and uses their resources to point out what they see as flaws. Their major domestic issues include opposition to same sex marriage and support for the war in Iraq. Their board of directors is made up of anti-abortion activists and other well known conservative political activists.

This organization does nothing more than attempt to malign the faith of good Christians working to promote justice as called for by God. Their report is a sham issued during a tense political campaign to give theological cover for the political right.

I'm sure it makes Chuck feel better to know that he's opposing the forces of anti-abortion and anti-gay marriage evil here, but he makes no effort to come to grips with the actual substance of the report. My suspicion is that there will be a lot of whining and weeping and gnashing of teeth on the left over this report, but very little substantial response.

- Ecumenical Insanity
Most days I get more e-mail than I do posts on the blog. Some is great and some people really dislike what they find here and love telling me about it. Here are a few recent examples:
Dear Mr. Currie,

I just wanted you to know how pleasantly suprised to find you website. I am a Christian supporter of the Kerry/ Edwards 2004 campaign. I live in Georgia and I am completely surrounded by very judgemental President Bush supporters and that is why it is nice to know that I am not the only Christian who is concerned about George Bush and what he is doing to our country and our world. Keep up the good work and I will pray for you and your efforts to make a real difference in people's lives.

May God bless you,

Rebecca

Chuck,

After reading the opinions of Prof. Wink in your article, may I suggest a book to you that might provide some clearer insight into homosexuality and God's word. The title is The Gay Agenda by Dr. Ronnie Floyd. I challenge you to read this and allow our Savior Jesus Christ to open your eyes to this immoral and destructive behavior.

Sincerely,

Michael Sears

Chuck,

Having visited your web page on the subject, I decided to write to you.

You cannot be a true "Christian" believer in Christ Jesus as your savior, and be for same sex marriage. It just is not possible...

The homosexual life style is no different than a person who chooses to commit adultery. It is a life style choice. It is a sin, and it is an abomination to God! No homosexual looses anything by not being permitted to marry another homosexual. It has been said that they loose property rights. Not true. It is said that they loose other rights, not true! They have every right afforded to any other citizen. It is not normal human nature for a man to lay with a man or a woman to lay with another woman. We as a people cannot make something that is an abomination become a legal pastime....

I pray for you and others that believe that homosexuality is a "normal" behavior. I pray that you would be given the wisdom from God to know that it is wrong to practice or condone such behavior.

May The Lord forgive you!

daw.

The good news is that for one reason or another people keep visiting this site. Just today I received my 85,000 hit. That’s not bad for a little blog like mine. Keep those hits (and the feedback) coming!


Kerry Wrong For Catholics: New GOP Mudslinging

First, the Republican National Committee sent out flyers to voters warning that Democrats planned to ban the Bible if elected in November.

Now they’ve launched a new web site telling Catholics it would be against their religious beliefs to vote for the (Roman Catholic) democratic nominee for president.

Just when you think George W. Bush and his associates couldn’t go any deeper into the mud they surprise you with something like this.

They dishonor the Christian faith with every action like this they take.


Institute on Religion and Democracy: Just Another Right-Wing Group Working to Malign Christians Working For Peace and Justice

A new report about the human rights advocacy record of mainline churches out by the Institute of Religion and Democracy is creating something of a stir. The group charges that mainline churches have focused only on the US and Israel in their criticism of human rights abuses while ignoring Arab nations. Their conclusion reads:

The mainline churches are not adequately addressing the wide range of human rights abuses taking place in the world. Denominations are focusing on the United States and Israel as the primary perpetrators of human rights violations. Great attention to the United States may be expected from churches that find their homes there.

But the dramatic focus on Israel as opposed to many more repressive regimes, including other U.S. allies known for human rights abuses (such as Saudi Arabia and Egypt), must be challenged.

In the 1970s and 1980s, the churches made the mistake of supporting oppressive Soviet-sponsored liberation movements around the world. They largely ignored human rights abuses in the Soviet Union and its satellite states, instead focusing on U.S. policy as the primary source of abuse. It appears that mainline denominations may be making the same mistake today with the Arab and Muslim worlds, ignoring many of the most serious abuses while apparently laying heavy blame upon the United States and Israel not only for their own lesser abuses, but also for the abuses of others.

It is evident from the tone and language used by mainline church leaders in their statements and legislation that, as a group, they believe that the United States is often a malignant influence in the world. This pervasive anti-Americanism is demonstrated time and again in their public policy advocacy, and one need not investigate far to find it.

Given the dramatic unwillingness of the mainline churches to criticize states around Israel for their human rights abuses—not only the connections to worldwide terrorism, but also the oppression and brutality toward their own people—it is not unreasonable to ask whether anti-Jewish animus may play some role in the churches’ skewed human rights advocacy.

The Rev. Dr. Robert W. Edgar, General Secretary of the National Council of Churches, responded to these charges today in a statement:

The Institute of Religion and Democracy's report titled "Human Rights Advocacy in the Mainline Protestant Churches 2000-2003," released today (Sept. 27), addresses the important matter of human rights in a fatally flawed way.

The report assumes that all that the National Council of Churches USA does or says about human rights gets reported out in resolutions and news releases. It ignores the NCC's sound, comprehensive policy base on human rights, especially the foundational "Human Rights" policy adopted by the Council's highest governing body in December 1963, and that body's November 1995 reaffirmation and expansion of that policy, "Human Rights: The Fulfillment of Life in the Social Order."

In truth, the ideologically conservative IRD cannot claim to have produced an objective report, having among other things used another ideologically conservative group, Freedom House, as its barometer on human rights.

The NCC naturally addresses many public statements to the government of the United States out of concern about how our own country behaves as a global citizen.

The most unfortunate part of the IRD's report is its apparent attempt to hurt Jewish-Christian relations by quite blatantly planting seeds of suspicion that the mainline churches are anti-Semitic. The IRD wrongly and dangerously equates any criticism of the government of Israel and its policies with anti-Semitism.

The NCC seeks justice for all people in the Middle East. It is working for justice in the land where our Savior walked and where our Christian brothers and sisters, along with Jews and Muslims, are crying out for justice. The NCC grieves all loss of life, including Palestinians and Israelis, and has said so.

We regret the IRD's attempt to play partisan, secular politics with important matters of Christian faith and ministry.

The extreme conservative nature of the IRD is clearly reflected in their mission statement:

Since 1981 the IRD has worked to reform the social and political witness of the American churches, while also promoting democracy and religious freedom at home and abroad.

Our church reform work at times requires us to critique our churches. In particular, the “mainline” Protestant churches in our country have suffered shocking membership losses in recent decades. Once America's premier churches, the mainliners are now only one-third of US church members. This decline shows that something is seriously wrong. But despite the decline, mainline bureaucrats continue to push a secular agenda of the Left instead of the timeless message of Jesus Christ.

IRD “monitors” church bodies and ecumenical groups and uses their resources to point out what they see as flaws. Their major domestic issues include opposition to same sex marriage and support for the war in Iraq. Their board of directors is made up of anti-abortion activists and other well known conservative political activists.

This organization does nothing more than attempt to malign the faith of good Christians working to promote justice as called for by God. Their report is a sham issued during a tense political campaign to give theological cover for the political right.


"Ground war in Missouri: In this door-to-door, religion-based drive for new voters, does Kerry have a prayer?"

The San Francisco Chronicle has a good article today on how religion and politics are intertwined with the presidential election in Missouri.

More than ever, Missouri Republicans have discovered the political power of that longtime Democratic province, grassroots organizing. While Democrats are expected to lock up much of big-city St. Louis and Kansas City, the GOP is mining the "moral issues" in rural and suburban Missouri -- home to 464 Assembly of God churches, the conservative Christian religion of Missouri's former senator and current U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft…..

But the Democrats are attempting to bridge the God gap with the help of a San Francisco resident, United Church of Christ minister David Keyes. This month, Keyes arrived in Missouri to be the Kerry campaign's religious outreach coordinator. He's got a long history with the candidate -- developed in the 1970s anti-war movement after Keyes married the widow of one of Kerry's Vietnam War buddies who died in combat.

On Monday, under Keyes' supervision, the campaign will hold the first in a series of "prayer potlucks" -- 100-person gatherings of neighbors to appeal to the spiritual side of potential Kerry voters. Monday's potlucks will be in five of Missouri's suburban and small-town GOP strongholds, including Springfield, headquarters of Ashcroft's Assembly of God Church.

"We're not going to, as the religious right has, claim that God is on their side," said Keyes, who is on sabbatical from his ministry to work on the campaign. "God isn't on anyone's side. We want to let people of faith know that faith and values are important in this campaign."

Click here to read the full article.

Our neighborhood here in Webster Groves, MO (a suburb of St. Louis) looks like a civil war battlefield with neighbor pitted against neighbor. People here are obviously paying attention to the election. Almost every house has either a John Kerry or George Bush lawn sign. Bush won this state 2000 and is ahead in the polls today. It would take a minor miracle for Kerry to pull off a win in November. The good news is that I believe in miracles.

Living in Fear in an Election Year: Remarks Before The St. Louis Association Of The United Church of Christ

I delivered these remarks on Saturday, September 25, 2004 before the St. Louis Association of the United Church of Christ as part of a forum called “Living in Fear in an Election Year.” The other presenters were The Rev. Katy Hawker and The Rev. Dr. Enoch H. Oglesby.

Living in Fear in an Election Year

Let me first offer a few words of self-introduction: I am a seminarian in-care of the Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ. My work background includes 17 years of serving churches, ecumenical groups and non-profit organizations that address social justice issues. Besides attending seminary – and being a husband and a father of 11 week old twin girls – I publish a website that reflects on the intersection of faith and politics.

There are plenty of reasons to be fearful in these times – and also some reasons, I believe, to feel hopeful. Who you are, where you grew up, how you read the Bible (if you are Christian), and how you feel about the role of government are but a few factors that help determine what if anything we might be afraid of.

Most of us still operate in the shadow of September 11th and the very real fear of terrorism. The national debate now underway as part of the lead-up to the November elections is not a debate as to whether or not we should fight terrorism: it a more a question of how we fight terrorism. Do we fight this war by unilaterally invading other nations or do we fight terrorism by reflecting on the causes? Do we simply drop bombs or do we focus our attention on fighting world-wide poverty and by promoting efforts to increase dialog between cultures and religions?

Often people of faith cannot come to consensus on these questions, but I agree with the statement adopted by the National Council of Churches in their document Christian Principles In An Election Year:

War is contrary to the will of God. While the use of violent force may, at times, be a necessity of last resort, Christ pronounces his blessing on the peacemakers. We look for political leaders who will make peace with justice a top priority and who will actively seek nonviolent solutions to conflict.

Fear of war and fear of terrorism are driving the debate this election year but there are other very real fears that we are all facing.

Poverty is growing in America. Our environment is in decline. More people are without health care than ever before. Schools are in jeopardy. While I have endorsed one candidate in the race for president (I’ll leave it up to you all to guess which one) it has to be said that neither major political party has fundamentally addressed any of these concerns.

Sadly, some political and religious leaders, in an effort to divert our attention from these real and pressing problems, have used this election to further divide our people by creating bogymen to blame our problems on. Let me offer two examples:

Shortly after 9/11 the Congress passed and the president signed legislation that created the Patriot Act. This legislation greatly expanded the powers of the federal government to carry out surveillance on citizens and even to incarcerate citizens without full legal protections for the accused. Secret courts now hear evidence in “national security” matters. This intrusion into American democracy, passed with nearly unanimous approval of both democrats and republicans, could only have happened in an atmosphere of fear.

It is fear that drives the debate over gay rights in our country. Gays, lesbians, bi-sexuals, and transgendered people have been blamed for everything from the attacks of 9/11 to a decline in family values. The Republican National Committee even sent out a mailer to West Virginia voters last week that claimed that if Democrats were elected in November they would ban the Bible and grant special rights to gay men. The RNC has defended their advertising by offering the rational that Biblical passages on homosexuality could be declared hate speech and thus the Bible would be outlawed. You might not be able to find a more pure example of playing on fear.

It is my contention that the political world lacks the capacity for dealing with these issues in any real way. All of these crises we face are more spiritual in nature than political. How we treat God’s creation – and that means the environment, human creation, and everything else – is a test of how we view our relationship with God. We are called to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8).

Too many of our churches ignore this calling as a primary test of the Christian faith. We tend to view our pastoral care duties in individualist terms. As an example, if a parishioner is ill and without health care we tend to offer emotional support, often we’ll arrange meals, and sometimes even take up a collection to help with financial needs. All of that is necessary. Yet we need to spend as much time – even more – questioning why the richest nation on earth is the only industrialized nation on earth without universal health care. In a time of so much uncertainly, anxiety, and fear we need to respond to the root causes.

During the spring I talked William Sloane Coffin for an interview that was published on my web site. Coffin, as most of you will know, has been for decades - in his positions as Yale chaplain and later at Riverside Church in New York - one of the foremost American Christian advocates for peace and justice. I asked him after all these years and after all the battles he has fought how he could remain hopeful. This is what he told me:

I think that hope reflects the state of our soul rather than the circumstances that surround our lives. So hope is not the equivalent of optimism. Its opposite is not pessimism but despair. So I’m always hopeful. Hope is about keeping the faith despite the evidence so that the evidence has a chance of changing.

As I wrote in my book Credo:

Hope criticizes what is, hopelessness rationalizes it. Hope resists, hopelessness adapts.

There are 38 days until the election. My suggestion is this:

Let us use that short time to offer a vision of hope that is rooted deeply in our faith. Let us challenge the voters and the candidates to put the homeless, the sick, our children, the elderly, and the environment at the top of their list of concerns as they prepare to make important decisions in November.

And let us recognize that no matter who wins the election the difficult issues will still be there. So let us make sure we are there to criticize what still is and to resist that which diminishes our relationship with God.


GOP Proudly Takes Credit For Mailer Claiming Liberals Will Ban The Bible

The New York Times reports today that the Republican National Committee has taken credit for mailing out literature to voters in West Virginia and Arkansas claiming that if liberals were elected they would ban the Bible.

The mailings include images of the Bible labeled "banned" and of a gay marriage proposal labeled "allowed." A mailing to Arkansas residents warns: "This will be Arkansas if you don't vote." A similar mailing was sent to West Virginians.

In an e-mail message, Christine Iverson, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee, confirmed that the party had sent the mailings.

"When the Massachusetts Supreme Court sanctioned same-sex marriage and people in other states realized they could be compelled to recognize those laws, same-sex marriage became an issue,'' Ms. Iverson said. "These same activist judges also want to remove the words 'under God' from the Pledge of Allegiance."

The mailing, which the RNC told The New York Times was part of their effort to mobilize religious voters, drew some support from a prominent Southern Baptist leader.

Richard Land, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, argued, "We have the First Amendment in this country which should protect churches, but there is no question that this is where some people want to go, that reading from the Bible could be hate speech."

Land did offer that the ad was “probably stretching it a bit far."

A bit far? This is one of the ugliest attempts to divide Americans that I have ever seen from a political campaign. George Bush should be ashamed (though he obviously isn’t).

United Methodist Bishop William Boyd Grove offered a statement condemning the ad that was published exclusively on this site on Saturday.

The Interfaith Alliance has also called for the advertising to be condemned.

“No political party can claim that it holds the monopoly on religious morality, much less that it has received divine endorsement," said the Rev. Dr. C. Welton Gaddy, President of the non-partisan Interfaith Alliance, the nation’s largest interfaith organization.

“We call on President Bush and Republican National Committee Chair Ed Gillespie to denounce these divisive tactics and to support the appropriate healing role of religion in this nation. Manipulation of religion for partisan purposes has no place in a democracy that is founded on the Constitutional guarantee of the freedom of religion.” Gaddy said.

The Rev. Dr. Albert M. Pennybacker, Chiar/CEO of the Clergy Network, has also issued a statement:

Banning the Bible? Can you believe that the Republicans would stoop to using religion for that sort of political trick in West Virginia?

Such a cynical and manipulative use of religion is simply shameless. It crosses the line. It demeans the Republican Party and the Bush/Chaney campaign. Even further, it demeans the Bible itself. And yet unintentionally, it calls us again to the biblical vision of peace and justice for the world, this time in sharp contrast to a desperate strategy for a campaign appearing to lose its moral moorings.

I am confident that people of faith will not be fooled. They will not believe this wild claim about the Bible and a Kerry victory. But they will see that the Bush/Chaney campaign is not above playing cheap with their biblical faith.

I call on the Bush/Chaney campaign totally to repudiate this misuse of the Bible. Also, I suggest that our current President apologize to the Bible-believing people of our country for implying that any American president can take their Bibles away from them.

If any ever asks you why the country is so polarized and divided you have to answer that it is because of people like George W. Bush and his idolatress friends.


Hip Hop and Pray Your Way To The Polls

My side blogging gig is over at The American Street where I post once a week (in theory). Today I’ve got a post up on a joint effort by hip hop artists and the faith community to register voters. Jeff Alworth has written an update on Ralph Nader’s ballot woes in Oregon. Michael Berube writes about the number of young liberals who supported the war in Iraq and now have misgivings. And the founder of The American Street, Mr. Kevin Hayden, has a number of great election related posts up. Head over and visit.


Discussing America's Role in the World: Churches Urged to Join Nationwide Community Dialogues

Message from the National Council of Churches

Between now and Oct. 15, the NCC is urging churches to participate in one of 5,000 non-partisan public dialogues as part of The People Speak series. The project is inviting high schools, colleges, churches and interfaith groups, civic and business groups to organize events around one or more of the following topics: American Power and Global Security; Energy Choices and Environmental Challenges; and Prosperity in a Global Economy. Religions for Peace-USA, an interfaith partner of the National Council of Churches, will be offering mini-grants of up to $500 per site to local religious communities to support the hosting of dialogue events. Deadline for applications is Oct. 1. A consortium of 25 cooperating organizations is helping foster local discussions in all 50 states. Read more.


Talking Homelessness and Trash Politics In The Race For Portland Mayor

The political race I’m following with the greatest interest is the race for Portland mayor. Portland is, after all, my hometown (despite being temporarily exiled to attend seminary). It also happens that I know both the leading contenders from the many years I spent working on issues of homelessness and affordable housing.

I made known my preference for Tom Potter in the fall of last year.

It was with great interest that I read the account published today in The Oregonian about the mayoral debate held on Tuesday. Jim Francesconi apparently questioned Potter’s commitment to adequately address homelessness if elected. Here is how the exchange played in the paper:

Francesconi also drew on a statement Potter made Monday night at an East Portland Chamber of Commerce forum when he said he supported programs such as the Dignity Village homeless camp and would like to expand them.

Potter said Tuesday that Portland has a lot of tent cities under bridges and that Dignity Village has proved a great experiment where the homeless have helped themselves. Potter also said police sweeps of homeless people don't work.

Francesconi countered that the better strategies for homeless people are to work toward placing them in vacant apartments throughout Portland. He also cited his introduction of a living-wage ordinance in 1998 that required companies doing business with the city to offer health benefits.

"You don't put people out of sight, out of mind," Francesconi said.

Francesconi is once again blowing hot air.

During his tenure as a Portland City Commissioner he has done absolutely nothing to address homelessness. He hasn’t lifted a finger. In fact, Francesconi has voted to oppose efforts to address homelessness and efforts to build affordable housing that people living in shelters could actually afford. In the meantime, he has supported the goals of his downtown business contributors to sweep homeless people off the streets and into jails. He has the worst voting record of any member of the city council.

Potter, on the other hand, worked with me during his tenure as police chief to improve relations with the homeless community. When I served as chair of the Multnomah County Community Action Commission (then the county’s lead anti-poverty agency) he appointed his top deputy, Charles Moose, to serve on the commission as his liaison. The police bureau, under his leadership, supported our efforts to revamp the downtown shelter system in 1990-91. When he left the police bureau he ended up as the executive director of an agency that worked with homeless youth.

Potter’s record is why other homeless advocates such as Erik Sten and Gretchen Kafoury also support Tom Potter over his opponent. Francesconi apparently discovered the homeless issue for the first time on Tuesday. Potter has been on the ground working for years.

Let me address one other issue:

This week I received anonymous e-mails from someone making personal attacks against Potter. These e-mails addressed some of the very same items that Willamette Week made mention of in their cover story today.

The nature of Francesconi’s negative campaigning – of which I consider this apart – is an embarrassment to the entire city.

Potter is a good man with a great record of public service. He should be applauded for taking the heat of this campaign and for being willing to serve Portland again.


Stop Workman Execution

This post has been updated

Action Alert from the United Church of Christ

Philip Workman has been assigned an execution date of Sept. 22, 2004, based on a trial held in Tennessee in 1982 in which he was sentenced to death for the fatal shooting of a police officer. This trial has been widely publicized as fundamentally unfair because of prosecutorial misconduct, withheld evidence, and ineffective defense counsel.

The critical "eyewitness," Harold Davis, was not at the scene of the crime, and later admitted that his testimony was not true. Medical and scientific evidence establishes that Philip did not fire the fatal bullet. Five of the jurors have signed affidavits that they would not have sentenced Philip to death if they had heard all of the evidence. A single juror could have prevented a death sentence.

One innocent life taken by execution is one too many. Significant evidence indicates that death penalty sentences across the country have been imposed unjustly and without a fair trial. Recognizing this reality, the United Church of Christ General Synod, in 1999, unanimously reaffirmed its longstanding opposition to the death penalty, citing racial and socioeconomic disparity in its application, and inadequate legal representation of people accused of capital offenses that contradict the use of the death penalty as an instrument of justice.

This is Philip Workman's fifth scheduled execution date. Each one takes a severe emotional toll. Contact Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen and urge him to grant clemency for Philip Workman. To send a fax or e-mail message, click here.

Update: "On September 20, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals of the State of Tennessee denied a motion by the state's attorney general to vacate the stay of execution of Philip Workman. As a consequence, Philip Workman will not be executed this week. God is Good." - UCC


International Day of Prayer for Peace

Today is International Day of Prayer for Peace. In that spirit I offer the following prayer that was made available by the World Council of Churches:

Eternal God, Creator of the universe, there is no God but You.

Great and wonderful are Your works, wondrous are your ways.

Thank You for the many splendoured variety of Your creation.

Thank You for the many ways we affirm Your presence and purpose,

and the freedom to do so.

Forgive our violation of Your creation.

Forgive our violence toward each other.

We stand in awe and gratitude for Your persistent love

for each and all of Your children:

Christian, Jew, Muslim,

as well as those with other faiths.

Grant to all and our leaders attributes of the strong;

mutual respect in words and deed,

restraint in the exercise of power, and

the will for peace with justice, for all.

Eternal God, Creator of the universe, there is no God but You. Amen.

(Excerpted from Current Dialogue 24/93, p.36)

"This prayer authored by Christian, Jewish and Muslim clergy was used in many places in inter-religious worships around the time of the Gulf War in 1991."


Republican U.S. Sen. Lincoln Chafee Might Not Vote For Bush

ChafeeRepublicans seem to be questioning George W. Bush at every turn. This weekend several moderate Republican Senators questioned Bush’s Iraq policy. I’m sure that didn’t go over well at the Bush / Cheney campaign HQ.

Now comes word that U.S. Sen. Lincoln Chafee (R-RI) may not even vote for Bush in November. Chafee is a moderate who has clashed with the White House on several important issues. Reuters reports:

Asked if he might not vote for the president, Chafee said: "That's accurate." His office said this has been his position for months, though it has gotten little, if any, attention in Washington.

"There is no secret that on some very important issues I have difference with the current administration," Chafee said, listing abortion rights, the environment and war in Iraq (news - web sites).

"Like all Americans we are looking for some answers to key questions in the weeks ahead," Chafee said. "You wait until November 2 and make your choices."

Chafee has long been one of my favorite Republicans. He has the same strength of character that Mark Hatfield (the only R I’ve ever voted for) showed during his years in the Senate. If Chafee was at the top of a national ticket - regardless of party - I might vote for it.

I hope that Republicans listen to his concerns and come to their senses. If not, I bet the Democrats would bring out the welcome wagon.


World Religious Leaders Tape Messages for International Day of Prayer for Peace

TutuMessage from the World Council of Churches

"God weeps over God's world, aching because of conflict in Darfur, in Beslan, in Harare, in Colombia, in Jerusalem, in Belfast," says Nobel Peace Prize laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu in his message for the International Day of Prayer for Peace, to be observed on 21 September. And he adds: "God - Emmanuel, God with us, with you - has no one but you to help God make this world hospitable to peace and justice."

Although, as Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew I affirms in his message, "violence and war are considered by many as ways of improvement for the world's situation," the truth is that "all of the ideologies and convictions on the necessity and effectiveness of violence are wrong and are to be condemned."

Recalling the experience of Germany, where a nonviolent Christian movement contributed to the fall of the Berlin Wall 15 years ago, the chairman of the council of the Evangelical Church in Germany Bishop Wolfgang Huber states that "wherever people trust in the spirit of peace in the name of Jesus Christ, they experience that it is a realistic force to be reckoned with, and that possibilities open up."

These are among the peace messages delivered by more than a dozen well-known Christian leaders and peace-makers from all over the world who support the initiative called by for the World Council of Churches (WCC) in the frame of its Decade to Overcome Violence. The inspiring two-minute video messages are also an affirmation of the churches' and faith communities' work for peace and justice.

This WCC initiative links to the International Day of Peace declared by the United Nations General Assembly, a world-wide effort intended as a day of global cease-fire and nonviolence, and as an opportunity for education and raising public awareness.

The video messages in both webcast and broadcast quality are already available at

United Methodist Bishop William Boyd Grove Responds To Republican Ad Claiming Democrats Plan to Ban The Bible

United Methodist Bishop William Boyd Grove e-mailed me today from his home in Charleston, West Virginia with the following statement which he asked that I post:

The Republican ad being distributed in West Virginia, implying that the election of John Kerry would lead to the "banning of the Bible" is outrageous, and represents demagoguery of the worst sort. No one connected to the distribution of that ad could possibly claim fidelity to the Bible for themselves!

John Kerry is a Christian, and the policies of his campaign, concern for the poor and the middle class, care for the environment (God' creation), and health care for all, are far more faithful to biblical principles than are the policies of the President. This administration has ignored the needs of the poor, and has left no millionaire behind. Increaing numbers of people have fallen into poverty, laws that have protected the environment for 30 years have been set aside and little hope has been offered to persons without health care. Which candidate and party are really faithful to biblical religion? The answer should be obvious to anyone who really understands biblical religion.

"Faiths clash on gay marriage in Oregon"

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — According to a national poll, a majority of people of faith oppose same-sex marriage.

But denominations, congregations, and members of the clergy diverge on whether to support Ballot Measure 36, which would ban same-sex marriage in Oregon, according to an analysis by The Oregonian.

Full story

A couple of items to point out in regards to this article:

First, for reference I’ll remind those who might be interested that I posted on this very subject recently. It is disappointing that The Oregonian article did not point out that the Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ has urged their members to vote against this measure.

The article does, however, point out that Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon is taking no position on Measure 36. EMO has an outstanding record of supporting gay rights. Some people will be confused as to why they are not opposing this ballot measure.

“EMO is an association of 17 Christian denominations including Protestant, Catholic and Orthodox bodies” and that kind of theological diversity can sometimes make finding consensus on social issues difficult. Both the pro-Measure 36 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Portland and the anti-Measure 36 Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ are members. EMO simply couldn’t agree on a position in regards to Measure 36.

The group does publish a ballot measure guide each election and it is worth looking at. It offers a thoughtful statement on Measure 36 and the internal debate EMO went through in deciding not to take a position:

The board of directors makes no recommendation on Measure 36. After a lengthy discernment process, the board recognizes there is a diversity of theological understandings when considering a definition of marriage and how it is to be understood in a religious and legal context. Some of EMO’s members understand marriage to be reserved for heterosexual couples only, while others support same gender marriage. It is within this context that the board is unable to reach consensus both on the theological and legal definition of marriage among its members.
Clearly, what is held in common, however, is the need for ongoing dialogue and discernment. The myriad of issues of human and legal rights associated with marriage must be explored. There are also questions of religious freedom and the practicality of defining marriage in the state constitution. Does amending the constitution with a particular religious definition of marriage impose upon other religions with different definitions? Can civil unions or civil marriage coexist with religious marriage? Can religious differences on marriage coexist in a legal context? Are there human and legal rights associated with marriage that are denied to certain populations because of sexual orientation? These are just a few of the many questions that need further discussion and public discourse to fully appreciate the complexities that defining marriage legally presents. The board is acutely aware of the personal human impact this measure has on all Oregonians. The board is united in opposing any effort to use this measure to denigrate any religion, person or community in this state. The board of directors has consistently acknowledged and advocated for the human dignity of all people regardless of sexual orientation, legal status, race, religious affiliation, gender, age or disability. It is in this spirit of inclusiveness that the board advises discernment, prayer, reflection, civil debate, discussion and thoughtful study in a manner that acknowledges that all are children of a loving Creator.

That fact that EMO made the effort to be public about their differences speaks volumes about the integrity of the people involved with their process. I’ll note that my trust level in these folks is higher because I have worked with many of them.

However, I still don’t like the eventual outcome. My hope is that one day all churches and Christian organizations will be able to speak loudly with one voice in opposition to discrimination of all forms.


"GOP Mailing Warns Liberals Will Ban Bibles"

This post has been updated

George W. Bush and his allies have hit a new low. The Republican National Committee has sent out mailers to voters in West Virginia warning that liberals will take away their Bibles if democrats win the election. The AP reports:

The literature shows a Bible with the word "BANNED" across it and a photo of a man, on his knees, placing a ring on the hand of another man with the word "ALLOWED." The mailing tells West Virginians to "vote Republican to protect our families" and defeat the "liberal agenda."

Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie said Friday that he wasn't aware of the mailing, but said it could be the work of the RNC. "It wouldn't surprise me if we were mailing voters on the issue of same-sex marriage," Gillespie said.

The flier says Republicans have passed laws protecting life, support defining marriage as between a man and a woman and will nominate conservative judges who will "interpret the law and not legislate from the bench."

Below are a few of my Bibles. These are just the ones I keep on my desk. I also have one downloaded on my palm pilot and have access to nearly every translation through the internet. Every place I go there is a Bible with me.

P1010024

No liberal is going to take your Bible away. The worst thing we will do is insist enough funding is put in place in our schools so that everyone is literate enough to read the Bible when they get home. Bush won’t make that promise. He just wants to scare you.

Update: John Edwards issued a statement on Saturday concerning this issue:

Republicans always say they want to have a values debate but lying and spreading hate were not the values I learned growing up in a small town in North Carolina where the Bible was the most important book my home. George Bush and Dick Cheney should be appalled by these despicable mailings. They should condemn this practice immediately and tell everyone associated with their campaign to never use tactics like this again. The American people deserve better.

Update: Read United Methodist Bishop William Boyd Grove's response to the RNC ad.


Hate Radio In Rural America

This week PBS’ Religion and Ethics Newsweekly takes on the topic of hate radio in rural America. They talk with Montana talk show host John Stokes and church leaders concerned about his program and liked minded shows like Dan Savage’s. A United Church of Christ pastor, Donna Schram, is one of those worried about the impact hate radio might have on listeners. Here are a few quotes from the PBS report:

JOHN STOKES (Radio Host, KGEZ, Kalispell, Montana, on Radio): When the Left extremists are out of power, they are vicious, and it is pure, unadulterated, satanic evil. And they may look like your neighbors. It's evil.

LUCKY SEVERSON: The Reverend Donna Schram of the Flathead Valley United Church of Christ is concerned about the chilling effect of Stokes's brand of discourse.

Reverend DONNA SCHRAM (Flathead Valley United Church of Christ): It's pretty hard, I think, to live that Christian life of give and take of love when you're constantly looking over your shoulder and being in a fearful state.

SEVERSON: The reverend's church is part of the Montana Association of Churches, which has begun asking members to get more involved in civic affairs to counter the influence of talk radio.

Mr. STOKES: The Association of Churches is one of the most leftist, communist organizations in Montana. They put stuff out in churches to boycott all my sponsors. I mean, they're an extremist group.

Read or listen to the full story by clicking here.

People like Stokes remind me of Father Charles Coughlin, the anti-Semitic Catholic priest who spewed anti-Jewish propaganda over America’s radio waves during the World War II era. Stokes and Savage (not to mention Rush Limbaugh) attack blacks, gays, and women the same way Coughlin attacked Jews.

Stokes isn’t just making right-wing political statements. He is opposed to dialog with those he disagrees with. And he is willing on air to advocate that people be killed.

SEVERSON: In this part of Montana, dozens of timber mills have closed, costing hundreds of jobs. Many locals blame government regulations, and especially the environmentalists, Stokes's so-called Green Nazis.

Mr. STOKES (On Air): This hue and cry now that you're starting to hear from the environmentalists, the Green Nazis: "We need have a dialogue. We need to sit down and understand each other." Don't. We need to finish them off and make sure they don't have babies.

Those who advertise on their programs (or appear on them as George W. Bush and Dick Cheney have done on Limbaugh’s) should be held in part responsible for what they say on the air. Paying for the broadcasts of these hate radio programs is the same thing as endorsing their views.

Rev. Schram and the Montana Association of Churches deserve our thanks for taking on this issue.


Church Backed Boycott of Mt Olive Pickle Co. Ends; Workers Unionize

Message from the National Council of Churches

Bush’s Failure To Follow Just War Principles Gives Just Cause For Voters To Oust Him In November

The conflict in Iraq continues to dominate the news and none of that news is good. American soldiers and Iraqi civilians continue to die in large numbers. The American government remains upbeat about the prospects for democracy taking hold in Iraq but a memo leaked this week (written by US intelligence officials) raised the real possibility that civil war will soon tear the country apart.

Theologians debated in 2003 (and no one really listened) the question of whether or not invading Iraq would be in Christian terms a “just war.” The concept is ancient and revolves around principles such as stating that preemptive wars cannot be just and that civilian lives have to be protected in any conflict. Most Christian theologians came to the conclusion George W. Bush’s planned invasion of Iraq did not reach the just war threshold. The National Council of Churches USA opposed the war and so did most mainline Christian denominations. The only major Christian denomination to offer support for Bush’s war was the Southern Baptists Convention.

The message could not have been more different from the mainline churches and the Southern Baptists. The Rev. Dr. Susan Brooks Thistlethwaite President, Chicago Theological Seminary, spoke on behalf of many mainline Christians when she preached:

For Augustine, the intent of both the nation and the individuals in war have much to do with evaluating whether a war can be justified. “[F]or it makes a great difference by which causes and under which authorities men undertake the wars that must be waged.” (Against Faustus the Manichean, 222) “The real evils in war are love of violence, revengeful cruelty, fierce and implacable enmity, wild resistance, and the lust of power, and such like” (City of God, book 22) for “the natural order which seeks peace” (Ibid) to be upset, it must be that the reason for undertaking war is to restore human affairs to peace. (Ibid). “For peace is not sought in order to kindle war, but war is waged in order that peace may be obtained.” (Letter 189) Even in war, soldiers must conduct themselves as peacemakers, targeting the enemy and not engaging in wholesale slaughter. The innocent must be protected, not killed as combatants.

The virulent, revengeful cruelty and the lust for power that Augustine so feared as the worst moral evils in war are our biggest risk. Are we just lashing out in emotional desire for revenge and to just get out from under this anxiety? For even more dispassion and reason in considering the use of violence, look at the development of Just War theory in the work of Thomas Aquinas in the 13th to 14th centuries.

Aquinas’ time was far different from the cosmic struggles of Augustine’s. In the high Middle Ages the divinely run society seemed finally to have arrived, at least for the elites. Influenced by the reintroduction of Aristotle’s writings into the West via the Muslim world, Aquinas posited a seamless, great chain of being from God as first cause to the last spec of secondary causality in the material world. Whereas Augustine was preoccupied with intentionality and the corruptions of the lust for power, Aquinas, as a rationally deductive thinker, took Augustine’s question “What is the moral evil in war?” (Book 22) and sanitized it to the question “When is a war just?” His answer is not an exploration of the corruptions of the will to power, but a straightforward list: “For a war to be just three conditions are necessary.” (Summa Theologiae, 2a2ae.23-46) The list is not unhelpful. There needs to be a right authority to declare war, a just cause and finally a right intention on the part of the belligerents, i.e. achieving some good or avoiding some evil. This list is subsequently expanded to eight.

So, it all really comes down to whether we have a Just Cause or not. Are we defending ourselves from attack (and that only came in with Aquinas; Augustine didn’t include self-defense in his original writings on Just War), are we defending someone else from attack? No and no. We are proposing to act pre-emptively; to strike first because some suppose this will prevent a future attack. 100 Christian Ethicists this fall published a rejection of a pre-emptive war with Iraq based on Just War criteria. The major protestant denominations, the American Catholic church and the National Council of Churches all have issued statements questioning the proposed war with Iraq and have often referred to Just War theory. To have a just cause, you have to be defending yourself (or defending someone else from attack).

Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, was a strong advocate for the war. He conducted numerous appearances before the media to offer Bush theological cover for his policies. Baptist Press news covered his pre-invasion views:

DALLAS (BP)--In refusing to rule out military force against Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, President Bush has an ally in Southern Baptist ethicist Richard Land -- and that has the talking heads talking.

"I have stirred up a hornet's nest," Richard Land said Oct. 12 on his weekly talk show, "Richard Land Live!"

"It seems that I have surprised many Americans, at least those in the media, with my views about 'just war' theory and how it applies to the unfolding situation in Iraq," said Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission….

Land was the lead signatory on an Oct. 3 letter to President George W. Bush that affirmed the president's policies concerning Hussein's Iraqi regime were "right and just." Prison Fellowship's Chuck Colson and Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ, were among others who signed the letter that said the administration's efforts were "within the time-honored criteria" of just war theory…..

Just war theory, Land explained, was constructed by St. Augustine and other early church fathers in the late 4th and early 5th century A.D. as a tool to determine when military action could be justified within a Christian framework.

"We cannot give blind allegiance to the government; we can't give over control of our conscience to the government," Land noted. "Jesus made clear that ultimate allegiance must always be to God, not Caesar. We cannot allow the government to take control of our ethical and moral decision-making process."

Land said Jesus made clear individuals are not to seek private retribution for wrongs done against them. "Romans 13 tells us God ordained the civil magistrate to punish evildoers and reward those who do right and that the state bears not the sword in vain," he said, noting the Greek word the apostle Paul used for sword in this instance was the lethal instrument used to decapitate those found guilty of capital crimes.

"We do not have the right to take the law into our own hands. Only the government is authorized to use lethal force," said Land, explaining the foundation of just war theory.

"Sometimes war is necessary; sometimes war is permissible under certain criteria," he continued, noting the theory requires a "just cause" be in place. "Only defensive war is defensible," he said.

Lethal military action must have a just intent; the motive must not be revenge, conquest or economic benefit, Land said. And such action must be a last resort, he said, noting that Saddam Hussein has had 11 years to comply with U.N. sanctions and resolutions.

The issue of legitimate authority was settled when Congress gave Bush authority to use force against Hussein, Land added.

The end result of the war in Iraq is from nearly all independent observers considered a disaster. No weapons of mass destruction were ever found and a new US government report confirms that none may have existed. The Bush Administration also called the invasion a response to 9/11 by claiming a link between Iraq and the terrorists. It turns out there was no link. Large numbers of civilians have been killed. American troops have even tortured Iraqi prisoners. Bush walked into Iraq without just cause and now we are stuck there with an even further diminished moral authority.

Bush claims at nearly every opportunity that God guides his foreign policy. During his acceptance speech before the Republic National Convention he talked about Iraq and America’s role there:

"Freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is the Almighty God's gift to every man and woman in this world."

Bush apparently sees his role as God’s instrument for freeing oppressed people (though this doctrine only seems to apply to oppressed people with large oil reserves).

The president is right on one thing: God does not want God’s people to be oppressed.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free

- Luke 4:18. (NRSV)

Yet neither Jesus or God asked nations to raise armies in their service. Jesus’ weapon in the pursuit of God’s goals was the weapon of love. Jesus did not kill for his ministry.

Voters should consider the record of George W. Bush and his actions in Iraq before casting their votes. I’m confident that John Kerry would not have brought us into this disaster.

Bush misunderstood the concept of just war and only listened to those who would agree with him. The president refused to meet with the United Methodist Bishops (Bush is a United Methodist) because of their opposition to the Iraqi conflict. In the end, he dishonored God by waging an unjust war, killing large numbers of civilians and soldiers, and creating a climate where more terrorists attacks are likely. No one should call his actions the Christian position. Most of all him.


Defend God’s Creation This November

One of the most pressing issues voters will have to consider in November are the environmental records of George W. Bush and John F. Kerry.

This earth is God’s creation and we have a responsibility as stewards to ensure it is protected and nurtured. One of the best statements on this subject comes from the United Methodist Social Principles:

All creation is the Lord's and we are responsible for the ways in which we use and abuse it. Water, air, soil, minerals, energy resources, plants, animal life, and space are to be valued and conserved because they are God's creation and not solely because they are useful to human beings. God has granted us stewardship of creation. We should meet these stewardship duties through acts of loving care and respect. Economic, political, social, and technological developments have increased our human numbers, lengthened and enriched our lives. However, these developments have led to regional defoliation, dramatic extinction of species, massive human suffering, overpopulation, misuse and over- consumption of natural and nonrenewable resources, particularly by industrialized societies. This continued course of action jeopardizes the natural heritage which God has entrusted to all generations. Therefore, let us recognize the responsibility of the church and its members to place a high priority on changes in economic, political, social and technological lifestyle to support a more ecologically equitable and sustainable world leading to a higher quality of life for all of God's creation.

Both candidates claim to be environmentalists. The record is clearer than the rhetoric. Environmental activist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. writes that:

George W. Bush will go down in history as America's worst environmental president. In a ferocious three-year attack, the Bush administration has initiated more than 200 major rollbacks of America's environmental laws, weakening the protection of our country's air, water, public lands and wildlife. Cloaked in meticulously crafted language designed to deceive the public, the administration intends to eliminate the nation's most important environmental laws by the end of the year. Under the guidance of Republican pollster Frank Luntz, the Bush White House has actively hidden its anti-environmental program behind deceptive rhetoric, telegenic spokespeople, secrecy and the intimidation of scientists and bureaucrats.

Kennedy’s full article on the Bush environmental record is a must read. I’ve recommended it before and do so again today.

The truth concerning the depth of the world’s environmental crisis demands that Christians act on Scripture and protect what God has given us to protect.

Sallie McFague is the former Carpenter Professor of Theology and former Dean at Vanderbilt Divinity School in Nashville. In her book Models of God: Theology for an Ecological, Nuclear Age she underscores the importance of the environment for Christians:

What is at stake here is not a sentimental love of nature or a leveling of all distinctions between human beings and other forms of life but the realization, as Teilhard de Chardin says, that his and everyone else’s “poor trifling existence” is “one with the immensity of all that is and all that is still in the process of becoming.”
Humanity actually wields the power to destroy this earth through nuclear war or environmental disaster. Global warming is one indicator we are moving in that direction.

Deciding who will be the next president will not in and of itself restore humanity’s relationship with God and God's creation. That much is obvious. The environmental question is more a spiritual one than a political one. How do you treat such a precious gift from God as the sustaining source of all life?

Another truth is that this election will matter. The current administration has sided time and time again with the polluters against nature. Check out the record. Could there be a greater sin?

Republican House Members Outed

Rep. Ed Schrock of VA was the first to fall. Now comes word that California Rep. David Dreier, CA-26 maybe the next to join the scandal crowd. These two congressmen have at least two things in common: they are conservative Republicans who have voted for anti-gay legislation time after time and it appears they’re both gay - a web site figured it out and let the world know. Outing someone is an ethically questionable tactic. You never know what the outcome will be. What happens if one of these congressmen breaks down after being outed and does something terrible? Retribution is a dangerous game. So is living a duplicitous life, hiding the reality of your existence, and then using your power to harm those who are just like you but who have had the courage to be open about who they are.

The Beliefnet God-o-Meter

Title_godometer04

Politics_gom_dem6Politics_gom_rep7

Beliefnet's God-o-Meter (Gah-DOM-meter) is tuned to both the Kerry-Edwards and the Bush-Cheney camps, measuring factors such as mentions of God per 30 seconds, context (invoking God to, say, justify tax cuts would send the God-o-Meter into a frenzy), and other subtle criteria. With a startling degree of scientific accuracy, God-o-Meter then rates each campaign on a 10-point scale from "secularist" to "theocrat."

During the 2000 election, our first God-o-Meter led us to describe that race as having "the most faith-talk of any in the 20th century." Records, of course, are made to be broken. While Bush recently flew overnight to grab a photo-op with the pope and Kerry jabbed politely back with a reference to the Book of James (see chart), the upcoming set-to between a born-again Bush and Catholic Kerry already has God-o-Meter's needle twitching ominously.

Here's a fun way to keep track of how the candidates for president are taking about faith this election year.


Bush Torpedoes Assault Weapons Ban

Gun1_1The 1994 law that banned military style assault weapons expires today after the Republican-led Congress allowed the law to sunset. George W. Bush, who said he would sign an extension of the law, actually worked to make sure Congress wouldn’t pass the extension (how Machiavellian of him).

Law enforcement groups backed the law. The National Association of Police Organizations, a coalition of more than 2,000 police unions and associations, endorsed John Kerry today in his bid to become the next President.

The National Rifle Association opposed the assault weapons ban and they consider this a major victory.

Studies have found that the law resulted in a dramatic decrease in deaths and violence at the hands of assault weapons. The Bush Administration and Congress have clearly put the needs and desires of the NRA (and the criminals they protect) ahead of public safety.

Let the killing begin.


The Fall Semester

EdenlogoLife has abruptly taken a change this week at the Currie household. Eden Theological Seminary’s fall semester started last Tuesday. Over the last nine weeks we’ve literally been working in shifts to raise the babies. Now most of the baby work is falling on Liz as I retreat into books and writing in my study. We have a sort of Ozzie & Harriet life.

Today was also the start of my field practicum. For the next nine months I’ll be working as a seminarian pastor for St. John’s United Church of Christ.

A selection of the books I’m reading this semester for various classes is listed on the right side of this blog (near the bottom) for those interested in what is read in seminary. My list is incomplete because a) I don’t have all the texts in front of me and b) we read a lot of journal articles that I don’t have the ability to link to.

It is going to be a juggle to raise twin girls and manage graduate school over the next 20 months, but we’re looking forward to all the fun that will come with it.


Ken Hutcherson: Is He Preaching Jihad?

Ken Hutcherson might be taking the lyrics to Onward Christians Soldiers a little too seriously…..

WASHINGTON (BP)--Seattle pastor Ken Hutcherson has a vision: one million Christians marching on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., in support of the traditional definition of marriage.

He hopes to see that accomplished Friday, Oct. 15, when a rally -- "Mayday for Marriage" -- will take place in the nation's capital. James Dobson, Tony Perkins, Chuck Colson and Richard Land are among the pro-family leaders scheduled to speak.

Hutcherson, pastor of Antioch Bible Church in Seattle and a former pro football player, hopes the event serves to unify Christians in the legal and political battle against same-sex "marriage." He also hopes it will serve as a wakeup call for the nation.

"The rally is just for one thing -- it is to bring the church together, to allow us to know that we are in this fight together as a church," Hutcherson told Baptist Press. "And we want the politicians to know, 'Don't mess with God's people.' We have been pushed against the wall far enough, and when you start trying to change the definition of marriage, you are completely pulling the whole foundation of America out from under us."

Full story

Don’t mess with God’s people? We have been pushed against the wall far enough?

Is Hutcherson planning on calling for a Christian jihad?

How does he intend to “unify Christians” when he uses such divisive language meant to obviously malign all those who disagree with his take on Scripture? Why is his position (or James Dobson, Tony Perkins, Chuck Colson and Richard Land’s position) on homosexuality (the same one taken by Islamic fundamentalists) the only right position? You have to take a very narrow view of God and Biblical interpretation to come to his conclusions and that is just what he does:

The Bible teaches in the Old and the New Testaments that homosexuality is wrong; there is no place where homosexuality is ever talked about in a positive light. Leviticus 18:22 says that homosexuality is an abomination to God. Genesis 19 tells the story of Sodom and why God destroyed the city for the sin of homosexuality. In the New Testament, Romans 1:24-28, among other verses, says it is unnatural when a woman wants to lie with another woman and when a man wants to lie with another man.

Do we believe that the Bible is the word of God, or not?

Ken, Christians believe the Bible is the Word of God. Some of us just think you’ve misunderstood it.

Deny Them Their Victory: A Religious Response to Terrorism

War_is_not_the_answer_2
In the hours and days after September 11, 2001 religious leaders in the United States struggled alongside all Americans to make sense out of the horrifying events which took place in New York, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania.

One of the results was this statement, Deny Them Their Victory: A Religious Response to Terrorism, which was a challenge from people of faith to the United States government and her citizens to act with “sober restraint” in dealing with the aftermath of 9/11. The hope was any military response would spare the lives of innocent civilians. Sadly, the Bush administration choose to ignore that call and to invade Iraq, a nation with no link to the terrorist attacks.

During that time I served as director of community outreach for Portland’s First United Methodist Church. My name appears on the list of those who signed this statement. Thousands of religious leaders from around the country joined in. The statement and the full list of signers is printed below. The list is long. Many who signed this statement took a risk in doing so. I'm printing all the names because I think those who spoke out for justice and peace after 9/11 should be thanked for standing strong.

Deny Them Their Victory: A Religious Response to Terrorism

We, American religious leaders, share the broken hearts of our fellow citizens. The worst terrorist attack in history that assaulted New York City, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania has been felt in every American community. Each life lost was of unique and sacred value in the eyes of God, and the connections Americans feel to those lives run very deep. In the face of such a cruel catastrophe, it is a time to look to God and to each other for the strength we need and the response we will make. We must dig deep to the roots of our faith for sustenance, solace, and wisdom.

First, we must find a word of consolation for the untold pain and suffering of our people. Our congregations will offer their practical and pastoral resources to bind up the wounds of the nation. We can become safe places to weep and secure places to begin rebuilding our shattered lives and communities. Our houses of worship should become public arenas for common prayer, community discussion, eventual healing, and forgiveness.

Second, we offer a word of sober restraint as our nation discerns what its response will be. We share the deep anger toward those who so callously and massively destroy innocent lives, no matter what the grievances or injustices invoked. In the name of God, we too demand that those responsible for these utterly evil acts be found and brought to justice. Those culpable must not escape accountability. But we must not, out of anger and vengeance, indiscriminately retaliate in ways that bring on even more loss of innocent life. We pray that President Bush and members of Congress will seek the wisdom of God as they decide upon the appropriate response.

Third, we face deep and profound questions of what this attack on America will do to us as a nation. The terrorists have offered us a stark view of the world they would create, where the remedy to every human grievance and injustice is a resort to the random and cowardly violence of revenge - even against the most innocent. Having taken thousands of our lives, attacked our national symbols, forced our political leaders to flee their chambers of governance, disrupted our work and families, and struck fear into the hearts of our children, the terrorists must feel victorious.

But we can deny them their victory by refusing to submit to a world created in their image. Terrorism inflicts not only death and destruction but also emotional oppression to further its aims. We must not allow this terror to drive us away from being the people God has called us to be. We assert the vision of community, tolerance, compassion, justice, and the sacredness of human life, which lies at the heart of all our religious traditions. America must be a safe place for all our citizens in all their diversity. It is especially important that our citizens who share national origins, ethnicity, or religion with whoever attacked us are, themselves, protected among us.

Our American illusion of invulnerability has been shattered. From now on, we will look at the world in a different way, and this attack on our life as a nation will become a test of our national character. Let us make the right choices in this crisis - to pray, act, and unite against the bitter fruits of division, hatred, and violence. Let us rededicate ourselves to global peace, human dignity, and the eradication of injustice that breeds rage and vengeance.

As we gather in our houses of worship, let us begin a process of seeking the healing and grace of God.

On the Third Anniversary of September 11, 2001

From the National Council of Churches

A Special Report on the NCC's Work to Save Fragile 'Bridges' Imperiled by War on Terror

New York City's prominent bridges often have been the focus of heightened security measures since Sept. 11, 2001. A different kind of bridge also is at risk today -- not a physical bridge, but with tangible consequences for human lives. At a time when they are more needed than ever, bridges of understanding and cooperation among diverse peoples, faiths and nations have been severely undermined in the course of the war on terror. As the world observes the third anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, people of faith ponder the sorrows, lessons and implications of that event with an eye toward the future. In a special web report, Sarah Vilankulu takes a look at what the National Council of Churches is doing to assure tomorrows more hopeful for all.

Baptists Boo Bush's HUD Secretary

aljackson020503Bush Administration Housing and Urban Development Secretary Alphonso Jackson was booed today while addressing the National Baptist Convention USA. The AP reports:

The booing started when Jackson, who is black, told the annual meeting of the National Baptist Convention USA that the Republican Party is committed to helping blacks.

Some of the ministers laughed at Jackson's comment. Then a chorus of boos started and went on for about a minute until a church official stepped to the podium and asked the audience to stop.

Jackson said afterward that the National Baptist Convention is made up mostly of older people who are set in their ways, so the booing didn't surprise him. He added, "The so-called black leadership — Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Julian Bond — creates and continues black victimization."

Why would people of faith boo the HUD secretary? Since George W. Bush took office there has been an on-going effort to cut back programs designed to help people lift themselves out of poverty.

Jackson says that his party wants to help back communities, but the president has refused to meet with the Congressional Black Caucus and the NAACP. No wonder the ministers broke out in laughter. They know the record of the last four years.

In May of this year, Jackson told Congress that 'being poor is a state of mind, not a condition." He used this reasoning to argue for cutbacks in social service programs.

When the booing got loud and the pressure intense Jackson did what all good Bush employees do: he attacked the audience by labeling them as “older people who are set in their ways,” according to the AP.


Oregon Catholic Conference Will Support Oregon's Measure 36

The Oregonian is reporting today that the Oregon Catholic Conference will endorse Measure 36. Measure 36 is the ballot measure voters will consider in November that bans same sex marriage. No one should be surprised by the Catholic position. Their church hierarchy almost always takes the conservative position on the gay marriage question. I actually have a lot of respect for the Oregon Catholic Conference and their work on anti-poverty issues, but on this issue they are simply wrong. My guess is that many members of the Oregon Catholic Conference will simply ignore their leaders and vote against the measure.

Not all Christians support the measure. The Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ is urging their members to vote against Measure 36. This is the conference that I belong to. You can expect that other denominations and individual churches will also oppose the measure. Christians are divided on this issue and even the Catholic Church only speaks for part of their own membership.


Prophetic Justice Principles

riversideOver the summer the National Council of Churches offered a document containing “Christian Principles in an Election Year” for Christians to use when considering which candidates they might vote for. New York City’s Riverside Church has now issued a similar set of principles. The Prophetic Justice Principles are meant to be used for judging the policy positions adopted by candidates. Check out what they have to offer:

We face a time of choices, and a recognition that our nation has strayed from some of its founding spiritual, moral and democratic principles. People of faith who care deeply about the soul of our country may feel inspired to hold up, as the Prophet Amos did, a series of principles against which to test their leaders’ policies for moral depth.

1. Seek the common good: Does the policy represent the common good of society rather than the interest of an elite few?

2. Be truthful in facts and motives: Is the policy based on a true analysis and does it disclose its true intention? How likely is the outcome to achieve its proposed purpose?

3. Promote unity and inclusion: Does the policy hold the prospect of reducing the polarization and fragmentation of the society due to race, religion, class, gender, sexual orientation, or national origin?

4. Care for the poor: Does the policy provide good news for the poor? Does it reverse the trend toward an ever-widening gap between rich and poor?

5. Protect the vulnerable: Is the policy good for children, the elderly, and the disadvantaged? Does it show sensitivity to the spirit of the golden rule?

6. Guard freedom of thought and discussion: Does the policy provide for free press, free discussion, and the expression of dissent, along with fair and just methods of participation in the democratic process?

7. Respect other nations and peoples: Does the policy encourage respect for peoples and nations other than our own? Does it respect the fundamental dignity and rights of every human being? Does it use diplomacy as a valued instrument of statecraft in resolving international conflicts and refrain from unilateral military actions for empire-building and domination strategies?

8. Ensure stewardship of creation: Is the policy supportive of strong measures to insure ecological responsibility and sustainability?

9. Cherish the human family: Does the policy practice good global citizenship involving respect for all cultures and nations, and collective responsibility for the common good of the global community? Does it refrain from nationalism, militarism or imperialism based on a sense of national superiority?

10. Provide moral leadership: Does the policy lead by example, doing the right thing and holding the right lessons for our children and our citizens? Does it promote a more ethical society, and uphold trust in public offices?

"Religious Left Says It's Ready for Major Political Push"

BY MARK O'KEEFE
c.2004 Newhouse News Service

NEW YORK -- With a full-page ad in the New York Times, a flashlight-illuminated protest on Broadway and a plea from rock star Bono for spiritually motivated, poverty-fighting activism, the religious left has sent a message to the presidential candidates and the voters during the Republican Convention.

After years of impotence, their movement is back, progressive religious leaders say.

While it is hard to tell if that assertion has real political muscle behind it, political analysts on the right as well as the left agree that the movement appears determined to make the case that God is not a Republican.

Jimmy Carter To to Zell Miller: 'You Have Betrayed our Trust'

Published on Wednesday, September 8, 2004 by the Atlanta Journal Constitution

Letter to Zell Miller: 'You Have Betrayed our Trust'
by Jimmy Carter

To Sen. Zell Miller:

You seem to have forgotten that loyal Democrats elected you as mayor [of Young Harris] and as state senator. Loyal Democrats, including members of my family and me, elected you as state senator, lieutenant governor and governor. It was a loyal Democrat, Lester Maddox, who assigned you to high positions in the state government when you were out of office. It was a loyal Democrat, Roy Barnes, who appointed you as U.S. senator when you were out of office. By your historically unprecedented disloyalty, you have betrayed our trust.

Great Georgia Democrats who served in the past, including Walter George, Richard Russell, Herman Talmadge and Sam Nunn, disagreed strongly with the policies of Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and me, but they remained loyal to the party in which they gained their public office. Other Democrats, because of philosophical differences or the race issue, like Bo Callaway and Strom Thurmond, at least had the decency to become Republicans.

Everyone knows that you were chosen to speak at the Republican National Convention because of your being a "Democrat," and it's quite possible that your rabid speech damaged our party and paid the GOP some transient dividends.

Perhaps more troublesome of all is seeing you adopt an established and very effective Republican campaign technique of destroying the character of opponents by wild and false allegations. The Bush campaign's personal attacks on the character of John McCain in South Carolina in 2000 was a vivid example. The claim that war hero Max Cleland was a disloyal American and an ally of Osama bin Laden should have given you pause, but you have joined in this ploy by your bizarre claims that another war hero, John Kerry, would not defend the security of our nation except with spitballs. (This is the same man whom you described previously as "one of this nation's authentic heroes, one of this party's best-known and greatest leaders --- and a good friend.")

I, myself, served in the Navy from 1942 to 1953, and, as president, greatly strengthened our military forces and protected our nation and its interests in every way. I don't believe this warrants your referring to me as a pacifist.

Zell, I have known you for 42 years and have, in the past, respected you as a trustworthy political leader and a personal friend. But now, there are many of us loyal Democrats who feel uncomfortable in seeing that you have chosen the rich over the poor, unilateral pre-emptive war over a strong nation united with others for peace, lies and obfuscation over the truth, and the political technique of personal character assassination as a way to win elections or to garner a few moments of applause. These are not the characteristics of great Democrats whose legacy you and I have inherited.

Sincerely, and with deepest regrets,

Jimmy Carter

Dick Cheney Tells Supporters America Will Be Attacked If John Kerry Wins Election In November

No joke. The vice-president said today that America will "be hit” by terrorists if voters choose John Kerry over George W. Bush. Here’s the direct quote:

"It's absolutely essential that eight weeks from today, on Nov. 2, we make the right choice, because if we make the wrong choice then the danger is that we'll get hit again and we'll be hit in a way that will be devastating from the standpoint of the United States.”

John Edwards responded with the following statement:

“Dick Cheney's scare tactics crossed the line today, showing once again that he and George Bush will do anything and say anything to save their jobs. Protecting America from vicious terrorists is not a Democratic or Republican issue, it's an American issue and Dick Cheney and George Bush should know that.

“John Kerry and I will keep America safe, and we will not divide the American people to do it.”

Cheney’s attempt to scare the American public into voting for his ticket will go down in history as one of the most despicable moments in presidential campaign history.


Hate Crimes Vote Sept 8

Action Alert from the United Church of Christ

People of faith have worked for years to strengthen federal hate crimes law in response to the horrific, hate-motivated murders of James Byrd, Matthew Shepherd and many other victims of hate crimes. We now have an opportunity to achieve a significant legislative victory by passing the Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act (LLEEA).

LLEEA, formerly the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, a measure to strengthen existing federal hate crimes law, was passed in June with bipartisan support in the Senate as an amendment to the Department of Defense authorization bill. In an important step toward passing this historic legislation, House members will vote this week on a Motion to Instruct House conferees to include the hate crimes provision in the final version of the Defense authorization bill. A vote may come as early as Wednesday, September 8th.

LLEEA would expand federal hate crimes law to include hate crimes based on actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender or disability. It would also allow federal law enforcement authorities to assist state and local authorities in investigating and prosecuting hate crimes perpetrated against individuals not engaged in one of the narrowly-defined "federally protected activities," such as voting. This legislation would provide the support and assistance needed by many small jurisdictions lacking the resources to investigate and prosecute hate crimes.

Particularly in light of hate violence perpetrated in response to the events of September 11, 2001, addressing hate crimes and hate violence must be a national priority.

Contact your representative today and urge them to support the Motion to Instruct on hate crimes to ensure that the Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act (S. 966/ H.R. 4204) is included in the Department of Defense authorization bill. To send a fax or e-mail message, click here.


Help Religious Progressives Reach Out To St. Louis Voters

Earlier this summer an informal group of interfaith clergy and laity met on the campus of Eden Theological Seminary to discuss ways of promoting a theological viewpoint this election cycle that was progressive and responsive to social justice concerns.

One of the results of that meeting is an open letter to the people of St. Louis the group hopes to publish twice in the St. Louis Dispatch before the November election. Click here to read the letter.

The total cost of publishing the letter will come to $10,260. We need help raising that money. Missouri is an important swing state this November and it is critical that the voters take into consideration issues such as affordable health care, the environment, and child poverty as they pick candidates to vote for.

Can you help the progressive religious community in St. Louis make this statement? Readers of this blog could make the difference in getting this letter published. You come from around the country and have the chance to make a real difference this November.

Checks should be made out to The Rev. Dr. Michael Kinnamon and mailed to:
