Since a lot of people have been receiving and/or forwarding on that now infamous email accusing Barack Obama of being a Muslim, I thought that I'd bookmark this short article written about it by a pastor and Christian author. He makes a good point about how Christians get caught up in the emotional aspects of politics and forget to think. We somehow mistakenly think that Jesus NEEDS us to defend Him no matter what it takes, and as if in human warfare, the ends justifies the means, but Jesus is not Machiavellian, and He, being omnipotent, is perfectly capable of defending Himself.
