What's your opinion on Liberal Religion?

[Mister Agenda]

I always took 'liberal religion' to be on the other side of the spectrum from fundamentalist religion, and think it probaby ties closely to political liberalism.

On one hand, I prefer them to fundamentalists on the other I think their consistent unwillingness to confront fundamentalism only strengthens it.

Liberal theists have a problem -- they can't confront fundamentalism, because they don't have a theological leg to stand on. 

Fundamentalism may be hypocritical as generally practiced, but there are people who literally believe the entire bible story.  At least they are being honest that they are swallowing the whole shit.  Liberals choose not to believe most of it, yet still somehow believe in God-sperm knocking up Mary, and the power of blood sacrifice to get them all into a heaven that was never mentioned in the Old Testament.

I think it's impossible to take everything in the Bible literally and also believe all of it literally. Cherry-picking is unavoidable and fundamentalists are fooling themselves when they say aren't while tying their logic into pretzels to justify the contradictions and not stoning anyone. Cherries are going to be picked, at lest the liberal religions are honest about doing it.
