From the beginning, there have been some religious leaders who greeted the funding of faith-based social services by government with ambivalence.

If marriage really is a sacred institution, then why is the government controlling it, especially in a nation that affirms separation of church and state?
Tony Campolo
I propose that the government should get out of the business of marrying people and, instead, only give legal status to civil unions.

If four years of university can increase your effectiveness of what you can do for others in the name of Christ, it is the best investment that you can make. But if the education is simply to get a job to make a lot of money, you have to raise the question of why you're doing it.

Freud taught us that it wasn't God that imposed judgment on us and made us feel guilty when we stepped out of line. Instead, it was the superego - that idealized concept of what a good person is supposed to be and do - given to us by our parents, that condemned us for what had been hitherto regarded as ungodly behavior.
