253. Well, to no one's surprise, you haven't exactly been paying attention...
Check out Sojourners. Or the Interfaith Alliance. Or the Fellowship of Reconciliation. Or the American Friends Service Committee. Or Witness For Peace. Or any number of peace and justice ministries of the mainstream denominations. (Believe me, this is just scratching the surface.) More to the point, look at the thousands upon thousands of individual Christian congregations where the message of Jesus's love and inclusiveness, and opposition to what the religious right has tried to make of Christianity, is proclaimed from the pulpit Sunday by Sunday. In other words, if you actually look at what's going on, instead of closing your eyes while smugly equating Christians and Nazis, you'd see that a whole lot of people are in fact "scream(ing) from the rooftops." It's just that, when it comes to Christianity, you've got your fingers plugged firmly in your ears, while loudly proclaiming "But I don't hear anything!"
