After 60+ years of separation, religion and politics have fallen in love again. As Soviet Communism’s 1917 atheist ideology successfully swept through most of the Western World, including America, during the 20th Century, secular politics, like the divorced family structure, struggled to make ends meet. The children suffered.
“Destroying churches and discounting God did not help our political situation,” says Oleg Kuchenko, former Soviet Red Army Judge. “We welcome the reunion of religion and politics in Russia and its ex-republics. We have learned the hard way: faith is a better controller of people than force.”
“It is impossible to keep bloodlines, money and politics together without the uniting sanctity of Religion,” according to Rabbi Jakob Sherman. “If other teams are using spiritual enthusiasm and ties to the Bible for political grounds, we better wake up our souls and get in the game.”
Besides all Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are based on rules, or religious laws. These laws all point to the same end (a benevolent God), but vary enough so that we can still fight about the differences.
As long as American Christians understand that Muslims, Radical Black Churches, Polygamous Mormons, Right Wing Southern Baptist, Methodist, and Unitarian preachers, as well as Catholic priests- Are Evil, we can officially recognize the marriage of religion and politics, and support the fighting that is happening in Gaza and Jerusalem.
Religion and politics have been fighting like passionate lovers throughout history. They argue about everything: real estate, money, morals, God’s chosen people, etc. Their explosive relationship and nasty divorce settlements of past will hopefully be reconciled in their remarriage ceremony set for July in Jerusalem.
Insider sources in Gaza say Religion and Politics eloped already….

Oh, for those who don't know, the photo is mine - and depicts the documentation of a "public art" project that Jill and I executed in LA, back in 2004.
