Speaking Truth To Newsweek, Or, Whatever Happened To "Separation Of Church And State?"

The Washington Post (yes, really) has this take down of this recent Newsweek cover story pushing the secular pop theology of +Kate Schori and the The Episcopal Church (tm). It wasn't really hard:
In truth, of course, Meacham and Miller actually know what everyone else knows: The Bible offers no support for homosexual marriage. Christianity teaches love, mercy, and forgiveness for those who do bad things, true enough. Look, for example, at the story in the Gospel of John where Jesus offers his divine love, mercy, and forgiveness to a woman guilty of adultery. He shamed those who would stone her. He taught us all that we are sinners and often hypocrites. And then he told her, "Go and sin no more." He did not reinterpret the Old Testament to proclaim adultery another life-style choice.
Read it all.

Why is it that those who most loudly scream "separation!" when Faith intrudes on society, are the same ones most loudly screaming "inclusion!" when society intrudes on Faith?
