To: Notwithstanding
Love of God and obedience to God is self determined and a free commitment or it means nothing. A Christian can warn of the consequences and the removal of God's blessings towards societies and nations that reject Him and reject morality, but to legislate another's behaviour is tyranny. So is forcing citizens to participate via their taxes in the murder of tax funded abortions, but that is the other side of the coin.
The tyranny of those without morals grows because they place no such restrictions to repect opposing views on themselves that they demand from others. This becomes more obvious every day as they scream over more conservative views coming to the forefront and display their intolerance after weasling for years that their crack pot ideas should be tolerated by the moral. Christians do have the right to organize and influence government the same as everyone else as long as they are careful not to impose tyranny on others. It is a tightrope to be walked with wisdom.
