The BBC reports,

A group of progressive Christians in the US have launched a new political movement to counter what they describe as the power of the religious right.
The Christian Alliance for Progress aims to “reclaim Christianity” and influence the political agenda.
“We can no longer stand by and watch people speak hatred, division, war and greed in the name of our faith,” said Patrick Mrotek, the Alliance’s founder.
The body joins other liberal religious groups formed around the 2004 election.
