I’m pleased to welcome a new guest writer, Donald Norman, to Mere O today.
By now most Christians have thought about the “lesser of two evils” voting strategy:
“I can’t vote for Trump. He’s too [fill in the blank]. But, I can’t vote for Clinton either. She’s pro-choice. Lacks integrity. ‘I don’t trust her.’ So, I guess I’ll just vote for the lesser of two evils.” At which point I’m never really certain if someone has just told me they’re voting for Trump or Clinton. All I am sure of is they think both people (and by proxy, political parties) are evil.

I’m very grateful for the work of MO and have really appreciated the things I’ve learned and the companion that it has been for me on my spiritual journey.

Thank you for offering thoughtful, reasonable and decent commentary. It is a boon to my sanity at this stage of my life in this cultural moment.

Mere Orthodoxy is (for me) a counterpoint to social media, a place of depth and critical thought.
