Christian nationalism attempts to sanctify oppression and not liberation. It attempts to sanctify lies and not truth. At best it’s a form of theological malpractice. At worst, it’s a form of heresy. --Rev. William J. Barber II

(CNN)Rev. William J. Barber II, a MacArthur “genius grant” recipient, says a coalition of the “rejected stones” of America—the poor, immigrants, working-class whites, religious minorities, people of color and members of the LGBTQ community can transform the country because they share a common enemy.

“The same forces demonizing immigrants are also attacking low-wage workers,” the North Carolina pastor said in an interview several years ago. “The same politicians denying living wages are also suppressing the vote; the same people who want less of us to vote are also denying the evidence of the climate crisis and refusing to act now; the same people who are willing to destroy the Earth are willing to deny tens of millions of Americans access to health care.”

Starting this month, Barber will take his fusion politics to the Ivy League. Yale Divinity School has announced he’ll be the founding director of its new Center for Public Theology and Public Policy. In that role, Barber says he hopes to train a new generation of leaders who will be comfortable “creating a just society both in the academy and in the streets.”

    Uh, Curt. The MacArthur Fellowship is a hotbed of heresy.

    I'm a huge fan of Rev. Barber.

    Now, Donna. That doesn't surprise me at all. I've proved, in the past, that you looooooove the "fusion" of a progressive church and American state.

    Barber will take his fusion politics to the Ivy League.

    Bingo.

    And, shucks! After all that work isle did to show the importance of separation of church and state!

    You're either uneducated on the meaning of "separation of church" or you're reeeeeeeeally bored and would say anything to provoke a discussion.

    I don't have a problem with religious political advocacy. The Constitution doesn't forbid that. What I have a problem with is religious-based laws bring imposed on people who don't share their beliefs.

    Donna,

    pb's point is that what you love is effin PRECISELY what scares isle $hitless when the people doing "fusion" are people who attend MAGA rallies.

    When people who attend MAGA rallies engage in "fusion politics" you poop your panties. Don't deny it. I've been reading your posts for a looooooooong time.
