Idolatry in America

So, I just finished perusing approximately 75 or so so-called Christian blogs, and I am amazed (or appalled, I'm not sure which) at just how political our faith has become. I mean, I know that recent events such as the November elections and Ted Haggard's fall from ministry are blogworthy, but nearly 3/4 of the blogs I looked at felt the need to chime in to the political arena, particularly from a Conservative Republican viewpoint. When will Christians wake up and quit polarizing religion to correspond to a particular party? Hell, when will Americans wake up and start caring about the social issues that Christ called us to care about, instead of throwing their voice up at every point of political division? Only when this happens can Christ's Bride truly function as the Kingdom on earth that it was meant to be.
