Bill, I think it is imporatant that we look at the message we are sending out as Christians and ask if there is anything that will serve as a stumbling block to non-believers. If people don't like the message of the gospel, that is out of our hands...if secondary issues that we associate with the core teachings of the gospel are the problem, then we should reassess the importance of those secondary issues. The message you send in your post is an important one for Christians to keep in mind.
Thanks for sharing this, and for your comment on my blog! I finally responded, in a separate post rather than in the comments, but without too much to offer in terms of books to read (except for one that I'm planning to write!).
I tried to subscribe to your blog's feed and it didn't work - I just wanted to let you know, in case others are having the same problem.
The Bible tells us to love God with our heart, soul, strength and mind. I use this blog as a means to encourage myself, as well as others, to think critically about faith.
I have worked in the political arena for all of my career, but realize that that there are bigger things in life than elections. I enjoy theology, philosophy and how persons of faith interact with politics.
