If he hates churches that must mean we are finally doing something right. According to Bold Faith Type(link here) he is advising anyone who goes to a church with a social or economic justice ministry to run away. Then he likens caring about the common good and humanity to the rise of Nazism and death camps.

As someone who served as social justice chair at my church for five years, I’m almost delighted that he recognizes the powerful effect for good we’re having. Rather than run away from these churches, I hope many are running to them asking how we could better be involved. If anyone listening to his radio show finds out their church does have social and economic programs, I hope they find out why and become involved. Because I doubt the church will respond that they were inspired by fascism to do social justice.
