Greg Boyd (of Open Theism fame) calls for a separation of politics from the church (link). Of the many responses, two are worth mentioning. Chuck Colson thinks Boyd should “go back and refresh himself” on history as well as paints Boyd as a basher of conservative evangelicals (i.e. “he’s a liberal!”). A better response, i think, is Jamie Smith’s who seems to grasp what Boyd is pointing at. The comments to Smith’s post are also worth reading through.
