Here is a fascinating article by Dr. Russell Moore grappling with the issue of the Christian citizen’s responsibility to God and (or?) government. When do we submit? When do we refuse? The Bible is pretty loud on the subject.

Dr. Moore addresses the question raised by a young pastor about the ethics of his decision to be a “conscientious objector” to paying Social Security taxes. In doing so, Moore slices like a razor through the ethical dilemma with Yoda-like mastery and raises a lot more ethical (and biblical) issues that speak directly to believers and their relationship to ordained human institutions.

I think this article will be a particular interest to political junkies.
