He has a complete lack of charity towards those who do not endorse homosexuality and towards the poor. Also, I thought the Salvation Army was fairly liberal. Apparently I'm misinformed, interesting.
The Salvation Army does hold strong views on homosexuality, perhaps similar to ours as Catholics ~ not sure about that.
One thing I didn't know until this past week is that while the U.S. Salvation Army says they totally disagree, the International Headquarters Salvation Army's official statement on abortion is that abortion is fine in these cases:
*rape *incest *life of the mother *suspected birth defects
How about that? All these years, I've been plunking in money to their Red Kettles at Christmas, not knowing that they're not really a pro-life "church" at all. Disappointing.
