The latest #SocialGospel movement claims Bonhoeffer's mantle but won't bear it's weight. He spoke of a the need for a religionless Christianity, but what @wilsonhartgrove.bsky.social and @shaneclaiborne.bsky.social are trying to build is little more than another Christless religion.
Ok that's at least a valid basis. There was a #SocialGospel tradition back to #TommyDouglas and #JimmyCarter in North American Christian politics that had not died but been suppressed. Talarico would do more than #YasQueen #Bratz #Barbie bigger-hair-Harris to bring it back.
