GRIT TV's Laura Flanders:

Hailed as the Democrats' answer to the Religious Right after the '04 election -- Where's the religious Left now, in the election of '08? Are right-wing churches just better at politics? Can -- should -- the Left learn from the Right? Here to discuss the role of religion in progressive politics are REV. JACQUI LEWIS, FREDERICK CLARKSON, and REV. OSAGYEFO UHURU SEKOU.

Progressive politics is for thinkers and truth seekers, not for believers. Anyone who follows a religion several thousand years old is not progressive, no matter what they claim.
