Rescuing the Bible
There is a blog that I have been reading for some time called Radical Bible. [bad link for http://radicalbible.blogspot.com/] It's great. The author knows the Bible thoroughly and uses quotes, sometimes with commentary, to show that the Bible does not in fact justify a conservative political stance: in fact it is a very 'progressive' document. He argues that Progressives who are also Christians need to rescue the Bible, and their religion, from the right wind.
Anyway, it's worth a look as a corrective to that last post if nothing else. Enjoy.
Update: Elliot (aka Claw of the Conciliator) reports that the above link doesn't work. So here it is again: Radical Bible.

Cool!
But your link has a typo and thus doesn't work.
Damn! It was working last night. I swear.
Of course, I was tired, and still recovering.
Thanks for the heads up. I shall endeavor to correct it. (Don't laugh - I can barely handle the technology for fountain pens. In fact, quite admire Shelby Foote's insistance on dip ink pens).
Well, the link has been spelled as 'radicalbLible' which I think is the problem!
If you put your mouse over the link the address will display at the left-hand bottom of the screen.
