On a nicer Harris note

Christianity Today November 7, 2006

Better than her “legislate sin” comment was her quote after voting today, as she said the election results are up to God. “I’ll do the best I can, honor him, and the results are his.”

Since we’re apparently being watched by several of those “young, restless, and Reformed” types tonight, let me solicit comments about the sovereignty of God in political elections. Is God’s sovereignty more on display in the vote of thousands of people than it is in the ballot of each voter? Are tonight’s results any more “God’s” than, say, Katherine Harris’s statement on legislating sin?

Yeah, I’m deliberately stirring the pot. The letters queue is too quiet. Address, for those who didn’t see it, is letters@christianitytoday.com
