Is Joel representative of churches at large? Since when does he represent the entire Christian, Catholic, and team church at large? Do his actions cancel out the actual money that's raised in far far higher amounts than non Christians?

Yes, he represents Christians in the eyes of normal people. So does the Catholic church, the Morman Church, and the Westbruo Baptist Church. All of these groups go around saying they are in the same club as you, why should we care that you think your part of the club is different?

Oh you don't want me bringing the Catholics into this, wait until you hear what they've done.

I think, if you actually cared and didn't want to just sum up a diverse group which does inclunde truly generous people, many partiparing in progressive movements, you'd probably have a better time identifying good progressive Christians by region, socioeconomic class, and race vs the generic denominations.

Stop pushing folks out of the tent based on religion. It's a lost cause that harms, at a bare minimum harms anti fascism and the hell the GOP is creating.
