Election 2019: Religion and Politics.

November 26, 2019 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

It is very unsatisfactory if faith leaders from whatever calling enter into the political debate, the more so when the country is polarised, angry and in the midst of an unprecedented election. Especially if it is directed at specific parties or individuals. Whatever the provocation and however justified the observation or complaint is,  such interventions risk religion and politics becoming entangled. When that happens everyone loses. It is a road to a very bad place. Do not go down it. However strongly you feel.
