Suggestion for the Religious Right
November 12th, 2008 · Filed Under: Uncategorized
“Too many conservative Evangelicals have put too much faith in the power of government to transform culture…. Too many conservative Evangelicals mistake political power for influence.” Cal Thomas
How do you feel about the so-called “Religious Right?”
Obey the government, for God is the one who put it there. All governments have been placed in power by God. (Rom. 13:1; NLT)
In deference to our broad range of DG Readers, I try to avoid writing about politics and religion. I have strong opinions on both, but I’m sure that many of you have no interest in my opinions because you have plenty of your own, thank you very much. I respect that.
Today is not intended to be an exception, but Cal Thomas wrote an an article after the election that really struck home with me. A good friend and colleague called the article to my attention over the past weekend and I’ve been wrestling with whether or not to share it as a DG ever since. As you can probably tell, I decided to go for it.
As you would expect from a widely syndicated columnist like Cal Thomas, he doesn’t leave a lot of blanks that need to be filled. So, I’ll sign out and leave you in capable hands. Just click on the link of the day and enjoy…or get angry, depending on your point-of-view.

Lord, help all of us put the very contentious and divisive campaign of 2008 behind us and move forward with a spirit of love and respect for those who embrace viewpoints different from our own.
