Liberal people of faith are a minority.

While you praise and feature them in your posts, it's helpful to remember that what they are generally opposing is conservative people of faith.

So it's not "faith" that is the solution here, gil. Faith, if anything, appears to be more of the problem. The more religiously devout someone is, the more likely they are to be politically conservative. This is a statistical fact.
