#2. Talking about politics

You're having dinner with the family and a few close friends and everything is going well. That is until someone mentions the one thing that no Christian family ever discusses. If you guessed politics, then you are correct!

For some reason, any topic is welcomed at the dinner table, except for that of your political affiliation. Want to become member of a cult that only wears Snuggies and drinks hot tea with biscuits? That's fine, we can talk about it. But do not dare to bring up the subject of politics! Democrat, Republican, we don't care. Talk to us about some more cults or something.

This of course is ironic, since we live in a very political society and the Bible itself is filled with governors, emperors, kings and kingdoms.

Why do you think we avoid the topic?
