Who cares if he was a masked wrestler. Is there some sort of litmus test in which only people from certain professions are allowed to run for office?

If you read the full quote, instead of cutting it off there, it makes sense and I would hope everyone (or most everyone) would agree. We are a nation of people who are self-governors. We are able and have the God-give right to make our own decisions and choices.

Why is this an issue?

Look up the definition and respond why you disagree with this.

Self governing: "exercising control over one's own affairs"

Does someone else make decisions for you? Do you choose what clothes to wear, what to eat, where to live, work, etc?

Unless someone else makes decisions for you, you are, in fact, self governing.

You can't apply political terms to Christian living.

I'm sorry to offend you Brother, it was just the libertarian philosophy he was pushing I was trying to point out. But it is a good thing he's doing something positive with his life, that is true.

Please forgive me, in Jesus Name!

No offense really, I just didn't understand why the quote in full would be so reprehensible.

I could understand how it would be problematic in spiritual terms, but in the political or secular definition, we are a nation of self governing people.

It was more about what was being said really. Just sounded like the church situation I here many in here want there church to go to where the pew directs the pulpit. That was it plus it was Kane, which is funny for years he never even talked on wrestling I thought the dude was a mute or something. Come to find out he was a pretty intelligent guy. Although it's still strange to me, I can't lie.
