Recommended listening: “The Left Hand of God: Responding to the Religious Right”

From WGBH Boston, a lecture by Rabbi Michael Lerner on values, progressive politics and society.

He has some powerful shit to say about the effect of our work lives and our market-driven, capitalist culture on our spiritual selves and how right-wing politicians manipulate this spiritual crisis for self-serving means.

Dude is a total badass, IMO. Worth a listen.
