Join the Progressive & Religious Campaign on Facebook

Tired of religion being used as a political weapon?Join us on Facebook this election year to create and amplify a new voice for religion in the public square--one that goes beyond the culture wars and partisan politics and works for justice and the common good.
We are a community of people who are politically progressive and--YES--religious. All are welcome. We represent the full spectrum of religion in America: progressive Christianity, progressive Judaism, progressive Islam, socially engaged Buddhism, unitarian universalism, B'hai, and others.
We're just getting started, but our goal is to build a strong presence between now and the election, showing the strength of progressive religious voices. Come help us be the movement we've been waiting for!

I would be very interested in your definition of "progressive". If I don't fit your restricted mold, you may not want or allow my interaction. I am a Christian with some views that are not mainstream.
Hi, Don, we don't have a hard definition of progressive here, and we apply it to political issues more than religion. But folks in the community typically support eradicating poverty, fighting global warming, improving access to health care, a compassion based approach to immigration reform, and equal rights for all. These of course can and are supported sometimes by a range of religious commitments. Hope that helps. We're generally an inclusive community.
