You can bring your religion into politics, but you shouldn’t bring your politics into religion.

But, when one believes in Christ and claims abortion is a right from God, then politics is part of religion, because all we do, and all we have should be guided by our faith.

Thus, a good Pastor will guide his members to know which politician to vote for. If he does not, then he is not properly guiding his flock.

Thus my politics is as much of me as my faith, for I do nothing political that is not controlled by my faith. Thus God is always in control.

The term “Christian” means nothing today other than a loosely organized segment of society that may or may not have anything-including spiritual beliefs-in common.

"You can bring your religion into politics, but you shouldn’t bring your politics into religion."

I see that you still remember some days f your government school indoctrination. They are intertwined and inseparable.

small historical whatever ..group a , by their text, believes that they have been told to vo forth, subdue the land and make it theirs.
group b by oral tradition, lives upon the earth, as it was given them to roam and take sustinence from, so why own it?
group a thinks group b is nuts.
group b feels pity for group a penning itself in.

group a attempts to purchase, or trade, land that group b roams. group b states it cannot release land, because it belongs to the gods.
group a, irate, flustered, sez puckit, invades the godland, annexes it to groupaland, wipes out group b, and celebrates with a land rush for settlers, while praising their deity.

meanwhile, news reaches a farther off and larger group c, who prepare for the time group a arrives.

politics? religion? you tell me.
