Question

As a political science major, and a philosophy minor, I am faced on an almost daily basis with questions that aren't exactly easy to answer. One question that I have found to be particularly thought provoking is this: What degree of responsibility do Christians have for fighting evil in the world? When my instructor raised this question in class a couple weeks ago, I was at a loss for words. Why? I suppose I could have given a generic answer but I don't know that there is an easy answer to that question. On one hand, I could have said we have a responsibility to pray and help those in need. In fact, I was tempted to give that as an answer but the more I considered the question, the more difficult it became to give an answer. I started asking myself questions like: Should all Christians "go green"? How should Christians approach issues like abortion or gay rights? What should we as the Body of Christ do about issues like domestic violence and child abuse? Do we have a responsibility to get involved in government? This list of questions kept growing until I came to the following conclusion: I honestly do not know the answer to all of the questions but one thing is clear. We (The Body of Christ) have a responsibility that extends beyond time spent in prayer and the ability to quote scriptures.
Feedback anyone?
