Wow you are on FR and think Christians shouldn’t be involved in politics? Cognitive dissonance!
“Wow you are on FR and think Christians shouldn’t be involved in politics?”
Yup. I sure do. My views have evolved but I think the last 40 years has shown that involvement by Christians in secular politics has been a disaster.
You will know a tree by its fruit. And what fruit has secular politcs borne for Christians for the treasure and time they have devoted to it? Is infanticide illegal? Are Christians no longer forced under penalty of law to compromise their beliefs? Are the government schools tolerating prayer? Is the country more moral or Christian because of our embracing secular politics?
The answer is a resounding NO. Yet we continue to pour treasure and time into a political black hole rather than spend our efforts doing what we’re told by the Bible to do such as prayer, charity, and evangelization.
If the definition of “cognitive dissonance” is speaking an uncomfortable truth, than I guess I’m guilty as charged.
