St. Maximos' Hut

Ohio politics
Some pastors at "mainstream" Ohio churches are annoyed at the support for Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell among "conservative" churches' members, and are complaining to the IRS about 2 "megachurches" alleged violations of IRS rules in supporting Blackwell.

I don't know enough about the rules or the alleged conduct to have a firm opinion on the merits, but I spotted this quote in Opinion Journal's Political Diary that I liked:


"I don't check my citizenship at the door of my church, nor do I check my Christianity at the door of the statehouse."

Rev. Rod Parsley.


Perhaps we can get some discussion going on the appropriate role of religion in politics.
