Wallis: Learn how to talk about religion

In a May 2 article in Salon, progressive evangelical Jim Wallis describes how to to deal with regressive use of religion: have Democrats and progressives attract moderate voters:
"It's so transparent when somebody is being inauthentic about religion," Wallis says. "There are millions and millions of moderate evangelicals and moderate Catholics who are simply not in the pocket of the religious right. And yet Democrats haven't got a clue as to how to speak to them. They have no idea! And Kerry gave them nothing to vote for."
