Interesting article in the Guardian on religion and politics brought to my attention by Jonny Baker: act justly. Nice to get an alternative point of view from the typical argument I’ve frequently encountered that if your’re Christian in NZ you should vote for a centre-right (neo-con) type party rather than the centre-left (neo-lib) ones. At the end of the day though both are “slaves” to the market. See Guardian Unlimited | Guardian daily comment | Don’t hand religion to the right.
