Re-energized religious left delivers for Obama

I wanted to flag for everyone this article in the National Catholic Reporter that mentions my new book, Progressive and Religious, and role of religion in the 2008 election.
"I think what the emerging progressive religious movement is poised to do is to help us move from the culture wars, where religion is the tip of the spear that divided Americans," said Robert Jones, a sociologist and author of "Progressive & Religious."

"What we're really seeing is a rebalancing in many ways in this election," said Jones. "In 2004, we had the artificial constriction of religion to a couple of hot-button issues and one party."
The full article is available here.

My name is Robert P. Jones and I live in windsor Ontario Canada, and I am an Atheist. To believe in a supreme being is to deny Nature and to allow the a atrocities to both Planet and Truth.Evolution is truth, creationism is fallacy, and it's being proven more and more each day , the Evolution is the ONLY truth.
Only religion seeks to stop what we are coming, more and more ,to be aware of on an evolutionary basis.
Those who understand the Truth know that we have to stop poisoning our planet, and heal her. This will only come about when the Truth is widely taught and made mainstream. Ontl the bible preaches war and killing "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
