He then lists the social issues that are of concern—inequality, the environment, education, overseas development aid, and discrimination. I don’t think I would disagree with any of these issues, as you could see from wandering around this blog. It is worth noting, however, that Campolo’s proposal of transcending the right/left divide looks somewhat disingenuous here, as these are all ‘left’-type issues. Where is the mention of parenting and the scandal of a fatherless generation? Where the need for a sense of personal moral responsibility? These classically ‘right’ issues also have a good claim to be rooted in Christian values.

You know, that makes me wonder. What if the dead baby is in China or Iran or India instead of Ireland? Do they ALL go to Heaven, or just the Irish one?

Yeah, you know that your religion and your sect is the right one. The one that god loves. How?
