A Political Theology Proposal
August 23, 2012 2 Comments
Both full-blown Libertarianism and full-blown Marxism
1) talk about God in a deist rather than Christian (i.e. primarily Trinitarian and/or Christological) way,
2) misunderstand the doctrine of sin (and it’s overwhelming presence in individual selfishness or the abuse of political power),
3) and are naive about politics (specifically the need for/virtue of compromise).
Thus, they are both heresies and should be eschewed by all Christians as political agendas.
Agreed! Now can we move on from this nonsense to some real politics?
