Speaking of Worshipping the Political over the Spiritual

Every Protestant knows of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. It's what we have instead of Jesus. Well this modest proposal would seem to be the answer if anyone in Protestantism really believed in it.

"When Katherine Jefferts Schori was invested as Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church in 2006, she offered not one word about sin, forgiveness, reconciliation with God, or discipleship, but many words in support of the Millennium Development Goals. In numerous sermons and speeches since then she has lamented that all the theological controversies surrounding the Anglican world have distracted us from our real mission, which is to help realize the Millennium Development Goals."
