Interesting timing. Yesterday, our sermon was about Daniel having to serve in Babylon, and my pastor tied it to the modern politics of the religious right. He wasn't terribly overt about it (it's a predominately white congregation in suburban/conservative N. Harris County), but it was about the hateful politics of people claiming to be Christian.
