Maybe you could post my sermon as an alternative for the more nuanced among us. No offense if you don’t. You had more patience than I would have if you actually read thru it all after you saw what it was.

Re: bullet point #1, you are correct, it’s a bit of a jump to assume I know who the authors are voting for… there are always third parties to consider. I jumped to a bit of a conclusion given the Republican-talking-point nature of the rest of the book.

bullet point #1: I would agree with his point that a christian should not support a candidate that supports abortion (so that means, yes, I think christians voting for Obama are morally wrong… wanna fight?). But fallacious to assume this means you know who I am voting for.

bullet point #2: I basically agree with it. Of course, it can be fleshed out more. Jesus, I believe, supported the death penalty in so far as he allowed for it. It isn’t a positive good, but a necessary evil, so to speak. Similar to divorce. I do believe it is absurd to say that killing an innocent, unborn child is morally equivalent to killing a convicted (i.e. guilty) murderer. That being said, I have grave concerns about capital punishment as practiced in our society presently.

bullet point #6: I don’t know what the position in the book is (not having read the book), but I would wager I also disagree. Doug Wilson posted about this some time ago, and it’s worthing tracking down in you’re interested. The point, though, is that aliens in the land are a blessing to a faithful people. They are only a curse to us when we are disobedient and hard hearted in what God has commanded. So the solution is kicking them out… the solution is living righteously.
