Default Religion and politics...why?

So I ask again why are so called Christians involved in politics?


Simple...
It's because Christians have given up on the Gospel to change lives and now
look to politicians to do their evangelising for them. They look to
politicians to make laws to force nonbelievers to act like their conception
of how a believer should act. "The World" is the world and sinners do what
sinners do, but, instead of bringing them Christ Jesus who has the power to
effect eternal change in people's lives and the power to wash their sins
completely away, the church looks to politicians to just dab a little
deodorant on them to make them smell better.


And honest answer. So many Christian today don't follow Jesus
teaching, but follow those of men.

If many atheist see this, they would have a new trust in the bible.

As a boy growning up in a Baptist church, the preacher absolutely refused to
even tell anyone who he voted for ... now preachers try to tell you who to
vote for.



Should any Christian particpate in politics?
