progressive stack

The hierarchy of identities on the identity politics social justice Left. A product of Social Marxist intersectionality, the stack is used to determine which people are more oppressed than others based on their inherent characteristics and therefore more entitled to speak and/or have opinions on the topic at hand. The acquired characteristics that make a person a distinct individual are irrelevant.

Identities are generally ranked as privileged or oppressed in the order which follows: race (white/non-white), gender (cis/trans), sex (male/female), sexuality (hetero/LGB+), ability (able/disabled), class (upper & middle/lower and working). Religion (Christian/non-Christian) may also be a factor, depending on the circumstances.
"Occupy Wall Street’s General Assembly operates under a revolutionary 'progressive stack.”' A normal 'stack' means those who wish to speak get in line. A progressive stack encourages women and traditionally marginalized groups speak before men, especially white men."

As a black female, Michelle Obama is inherently oppressed by *all* white homeless men. Except, possibly, transgendered white homeless men; we're not sure about them?

this is for the complete lamo that most likely doesn't have 2 brain cells to bounce together. If you think about a funeral procession, and how it takes a little bit of effort to keep it organized...now pare it down to one car, yes, just one car - the idiot him/herself.
That moron could fuck up a one car funeral procession.

Cool people who, unlike their fundamentalist counterparts, don't need to turn their backs on modern science to keep their faith alive
The famous Jewish philosopher Maimonides once said that if science conflicts with Scripture, then it must be Scripture we have misunderstood.
It's sad these words of wisdom died out so long ago

Since creationists are likely to disagree with the idea that modern science like evolution is sufficiently supported, I'll go ahead and quote the renowned biologist Douglas Futuyma,

"The statement that organisms have descended with modifications from common ancestors—the historical reality of evolution—is not a theory. It is a fact, as fully as the fact of the earth's revolution about the sun."

Theodosius Dobzhansky had this to say in his famous paper "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution",

"I am a creationist and an evolutionist. Evolution is God's, or Nature's method of creation. Creation is not an event that happened in 4004 BC; it is a process that began some 10 billion years ago and is still under way."

He also wrote,

"Does the evolutionary doctrine clash with religious faith? It does not. It is a blunder to mistake the Holy Scriptures for elementary textbooks of astronomy, geology, biology, and anthropology. Only if symbols are construed to mean what they are not intended to mean can there arise imaginary, insoluble conflicts. ...the blunder leads to blasphemy: the Creator is accused of systematic deceitfulness."
Liberal/progressive Christians do not believe in a deceiving God. They know that, considering the overwhelming amount of evidence for evolution, to deny it would be equivalent to denying the existence of ancient Rome or Greece.
