All we need is Jesus. Not a new fangled socio-political religious agenda. I've seen people vote and be led away like drones because of this theology. They'll even vote for what isn't in their own family's best interest. And that wrecks the process. If we do not have enough citizens voting for what is in our best interest... we're not going to see the public best interest reflected in our politics. That's what leaves most of the Western world stunned about Americans. It's like we started this dream... and now other countries have it.
Frankly, I've come to the conclusion that politics is actually quite worldly. A necessity for the world we live in, but worldly. This is just a theology that justifies churches trying to get in on the power grab.
