Malaysian Churches Are Entering Politics
According to today's Boston Globe, in Malaysia, Christian churches are becoming involved in this week end's upcoming elections. Churches are urging Christians to back candidates who promote religious freedom. The Christian Federation of Malaysia is encouraging Christians to vote for candidates whose policies "reflect God's standard and Christian values." Many Christians are worried about a perceived Islamization of national life in Malaysia.
