We must show our Christian colors if we are to be true to Christ. We can't remain silent or concede everything away.

THe choice is between a guaranteed four years ( or Lord knows how many more )years of a self proclaimed communist and his cronies who have already done much to destroy the last great hope of this earth or if one must holding your nose and voting for Romney and as many conservatives as you can. Then it is up to US to hold their feet to the fire.
The truth is that Lewis did not live in a federated republic. We do. He tended not to speak about politics and I think that is just as well. We are not voting for pastor in chief but commander in chief. I will take Romney any day of the week ( particularly with lots of conservatives in congress and an active electorate) over the yob in the WH now

He probably wouldn’t, he was an Irish citizen.

I’m guessing he’s voting democrat this year. He’s dead now, right?

True, but when he did speak of politics he was extraordinarily clear. His essay, "Is Progress Possible? Willing Slaves of the Welfare State" (God in the Dock) from which the second quote above is taken, could be written today about the social planers in Obama's regime.

Good one. On the other hand he may not really be dead I get a couple tweets a day from him @CSLewisDaily.

I think C.S. Lewis was not a US citizen. That means he would not vote in this election due to not being either a citizen OR a lying, cheating Democrat.
