TechnoratiBut the lesson from it is very clear: Christians must not look at the election results and get very discouraged and say, “We’re going to back away from things; we’re not going to get involved anymore.” Don’t do that. That’s an overreaction. We have to see this as a long-term fight, not only for the laws to be changed, but also for the culture to be changed, which is what we do best. And Wilberforce fully understood that. That’s really the takeaway lesson from this election, isn’t it?
Mark: You’re exactly right, Chuck. Wilberforce never gave up, and neither should we. As he said, “It would merit no better name than desertion if I were thus to fly from the post where Providence has placed me.”
Chuck: That’s the lesson in the wake of the 2006 election.
