This video makes me sad.  God is not a Democrat or a Republican.  If you think God is always on your side of a political fight, then maybe you have made God into your image, not the other way around.  God does not strike down Republican or Democratic Senators for their votes on health care reform.  The efforts by Republicans to stir up people of faith may indeed “backfire,” as the caller referenced, but it won’t be from God.  As we near the celebration of Christmas, my faith tradition tells me to love my neighbor (Republican and Democrat).  It is my prayer that on this Christmas that we all can pause from trying to fit God into our politics and that the entire world (Jewish, Muslim or Christian) can experience a little more peace.
