A few weeks ago our president reversed the bill President Jonson passed in the sixties that would allow for the government and church to be separate. This means that big Christian churches can start donating to political candidates and still not have to pay any taxes. This is outrageous, this is not what Christianity is about but it is what these big churches and evangelical leaders are trying to make it about and this needs to stop. Christianity is about helping your brother out and bringing people to Christ individually or through the church. If you look back at history when the church gets involved in politics sure it goes great for a little while but then there is this downward spiral of corruption. Also, all those evangelical leaders that are in politics don't speak for me or speak for my faith. This is going to divide our country even more because we are not creating a fair system for everyone. We are creating a system that only benefits some people of our country. I promote helping others by promoting principles that stand for everyone without bias and look at it from the standpoint what if this was me. I don't support shoving Christianity down peoples' throats with this mass evangelism: it's this idea of easy and deceptive Christianity. This type of Christianity might look good on paper but in reality, it isn't what Christ calls us to do. My ideals are to promote loving one another and letting your good works and deeds show, so that people may think "Hey I want what he got, he seems like a loving and nice guy." Not by flaunting my faith in their face but by showing them love and grace.
