15. It goes both way - I heard him and Jim Wallis several times and
they seem to disregard the possibility that somebody or an organization that is not religious can have the same goals they have without being religious. It is not even the issue of being of the same religion than them. It is the fact that they refuse that some things and organizations can work without being faith-based.

As long as they and other will continue to assimilate "no values" and "no religious values", they will be a terrible disconnect.

I am not an ennemy of people who have a religion, but very often, I am tired of the judgement they have on me because I am not religious. I have even heard some Democratic pols (not in my part of the country, but still) complaint that some people who go to church every Sunday are poor (as if there was a relationship).
