I really didn't want to blog too much about the current political situation, but I feel a little forced into it.
Although I could rant and rave for hours on end about all the things I find absolutely ridiculous about people's overjoyed reactions to Obama being elected.... I will only say this:
I am not a racist b/c I voted for the white candidate. My vote was based on moral issues, period. If you know me, and you even imply that I am somehow racist b/c I am disappointed in the outcome of this election, then you need to take a long look in the mirror.
Statements like, "we try to avoid addressing race in the church b/c we try to keep everyone equal" make my blood boil. Don't you realize that Christ died for all of us? Don't you know that we all are the adopted seed of Abraham through the blood of Jesus? The church doesn't have to avoid racial issues. We are all the same race. We are all Christians. We are brethren. We are family. I don't see the color of your skin, and you shouldn't see mine. If you make judgments about me based on race, you need to pick the log out of your eye.
Ok, I'm done.....at least as far as blogging about it goes.
