Which reform do we support?<br /><br />Yes, but like most issues you need to go back to the initial causes & reasons. Related to the first question, it wouldn't be an issue if Christians were tithing as they were supposed to.Lance Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11275043953229783836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-6857456355554965912007-01-15T22:07:00.000-06:002007-01-15T22:07:00.000-06:00A list of topics is not a description of Christian...A list of topics is not a description of Christian political/social thinking.<br /><br />Fine - we have these values - politics is about implementing values.

It's now illegal to smack/spank a toddler in Scotland, for example, and the law has recently changed in the Uk to outlaw anything other than the use of the hand, and that only if it leaves 'no marks'.<br /><br /> I agree with you about Christians and politics - the only time I tend to disagree with people who are political is when the only thing they're known for is being ever-so-slightly hysterical and screaming outside the Houses of Parliament with placards.<br /> But then, the Uk is a different place to US, on all sorts of levels, and sadly lacking in real gumption about this sort of thing.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14873728356115837593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-85690189034293655862007-01-15T10:00:00.000-06:002007-01-15T10:00:00.000-06:00unbelievable...it seems like this type of bill (no...unbelievable...it seems like this type of bill (no spanking) comes up every couple of years. I know it did in Virginia a few years back. It didn't really gain enough momentum to pass. California could be a different story though. The political scene is simply depressing to me right now.joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407734824168297388noreply@blogger.com
