Mixing the church and state is like mixing ice cream with cow manure. It may not do much to the manure, but it sure messes up the ice cream.

About Me
- Joyce
- I'm just an ordinary woman who loves an extraordinary God. I'm happily married and crazy in love with my adorable and hilarious husband, Jeff. My passion is seeing people receive healing and wholeness from Jesus ... nothing humbles or excites me more than being at the feet of my King watching Him do the amazing things only He can do. I am insanely and more-than-extravagantly blessed and surrounded by some of the most amazing friends I have ever known, all met at Crossroads in a city where I didn't know a single soul. Incredible. I am spontaneous, loud, borderline obnoxious, compassionate, kind, a quick and frequent laugher, and the queen of procrastination. I spend my life laughing in the face of storms and flying by the seat of my pants.

Well, having read the Jesus for president clips you posted on 3/10,and not understanding any part of it, here's something I CAN understand and agree with.
The only thing we'd disagree on is which of the two (religion or politics) is the manure.
Does it really matter?
Good words... religion seems to always come out bad when it is mixed with politics.
Joyce,
Touche!
Brad,
interestingly, Governments always turn out bad when mixed with religion. The Founding fathers knew this, imperfect but insightful men that they were.
