There is much ink spilt in Christian theological discourse in recent decades over what is perceived as the false dichotomy between religion and politics. After much consideration I'd like to offer a little thesis.
Politics is a category that is not identified with ethics although in actuality politics is mass organization based on an ethical foundation.
I think such a thesis can inform my Christianity and it apparent political implications. They are not political so much as they are ethical. Now if I take the whole idea of 'political organizing' as itself an ethical matter I may just be an anarchist.
