God's Politics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

God's Politics: Why the Right Gets It Wrong and the Left Doesn't Get It is a 2005 book by author Jim Wallis. The book focuses on the role of religion in politics, and critiques both the so-called "religious right" and the "secular left". His criticism includes quotations from the bible, as he accuses George W. Bush of practising bad theology, noting that Jesus was strictly non-violent, and said more about social justice than homosexuality. However he also defends religion in general, and challenges organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union for overreacting to public displays of religion.
