Conservative Christian leaders who believe the word "evangelical" has
lost its religious meaning plan to release a starkly self-critical
document saying the movement has become too political and has
diminished the Gospel through its approach to the culture wars.
The statement, called "An Evangelical Manifesto," condemns Christians
on the right and left for using faith to express political views
without regard to the truth of the Bible, according to a draft of the
document obtained Friday by The Associated Press.
"That way faith loses its independence, Christians become 'useful
idiots' for one political party or another, and the Christian faith
becomes an ideology," according to the draft.
