"Counterfeit Spirituality"?
I believe Mr. Adamo has some worthy points here...
Here's just a part of Christopher G. Adamo at GOPUSA.com:
"With the help of the ever present liberal clergy, who studiously avoid and actively discourage 'political involvement' on those prickly issues of abortion and sexual immorality, a new direction and rationale for 'Christianity' has been established in the past few years. The two main pillars of this counterfeit spirituality are environmentalism and socialism. Not surprisingly, in regards to these issues those same liberal clerics are only too willing to lend a hand.
Concurrently, 'Christian' populists, such as California megachurch pastor Rick Warren have done their best to open the floodgates of this modern 'leaven,' by supplanting stodgy old religionists and their narrow perspective of sin and redemption with the delightfully more flexible concept of 'purpose.' Under its auspices, saving an ostensibly endangered species might rate comparable spiritual glory with saving souls, while clearly representing far less of an affront to 'old scratch.' It is therefore liable to incur far less of a backlash from his leftist minions in the political arena or on the nightly news.
So, what are the real consequences facing a society that embraces these false premises of 'spirituality' while abandoning the truth? The same as they have always been throughout history: decline and eventual ruin. And the evidence is mounting before our eyes."
