Many thanks to the Rev. Susan Russell for reminding me of one of Ed Bacon's (Rector, All Saints Church, Pasadena) best quotes: "Faith in action is called politics. Spirituality without action is fruitless and social action without spirituality is heartless. We are boldly political without being partisan. Having a partisan-free place to stand liberates the religious patriot to see clearly, speak courageously, and act daringly."
There is an excellent guide for the upcoming elections produced by Church of the Holy Trinity in New York City. You can find the guide -- Setting the 2008 National Agenda: From a Christian Perspective -- at HERE .

Yet sadly there are all too many who would disagree with this quote. How many times do we hear "Politics and Religion don't mix"?
... and don't forget about sex as well ... what is the disconnect?
But of course. We mustn't discuss "down there" issues in polite society.
That's the "part" I don't understand ...
BTW: glad to find another fan of body art.
