Jesus was smart.

Jesus was one really smart dude.  One of the things he did that was smart was stay completely out of politics.  He made it quite clear that his kingdom was "not of this world".  So..no politics, no economic theories, nothing but God stuff. 

Living in a "red" state can be a challege for someone like me whose views are generally not very red.  I tend to be a mix of liberalism and libertarian (yes, they mix), plus a little that seems to be my very own take on things.  But, some folks assume that all Christians must be conservative Republican, and will lecture at length on why that is so.  Nope.  Please, please, please, don't connect certain political views with certain religious views.  Same with economics.  A free market is neither Christian nor non-Christian.  Same for socialism.  Economics is not politics is not religion.  Sorry.

  1. Here Here!!! I am so sick of people who are trying to pretend the first amendment didn't "really" mean separation of Church and State. People need to keep their religion to themselves and out of our politics and laws.
