Shuddering as Super Tuesday inches along...
Thank you to Peter Wehner for this op-ed piece in today's NYT: "What Wouldn't Jesus Do?"
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/01/opinion/campaign-stops/what-wouldnt-jesus-do.html?ref=opinion
I'm enjoying the answers I find to this question on my Twitter feed.
Wehner contrasts Plato and a debater named Thrasymachus, who says, " “Injustice, if it is on a large enough scale, is stronger, freer, and more masterly than justice."
As a born-again Christian, I agree with Wehner's conclusion:
"The attitude of Thrasymachus is foreign to biblical Christianity. So is Trumpism. In embracing it, evangelical Christians are doing incalculable damage to their witness."
And what is more important to an evangelical than our witness?
