Patriotism and Idolatry
by Tim King 10-11-2010
"This meditation is part of a dialog on Patheos.com about the question, “So, when does patriotism pass over into idolatry?”
"Idolatry is often subtle. I’ve never walked into a Church to see the cross replaced with a golden calf. It’s not that blatant. Idolatry replaces God with anything that is less than God, even if that thing is pretty good."
Good stuff!!!
