Week 5- Reading response 4-#2

I am in between on my decision of whether wearing a button "God is neither Democrat or Republican" is divisive. On the one hand it feels like its attacking to the political parties. It's a bold statement, telling everyone that no matter what they say it isn't going to sway them. The true issue at hand on the campus really didn't feel like it had anything to do with associating a religion with a political party. On the other it claims that both sides are equal to God and Christianity. Being Christian, I feel that politics and religion co-exist, but don't always agree . It comes down to decisions being made on a moral base or decisions being made for the best of everyone's well being. Wearing the button is a statement that although the President is speaking at the graduation, it doesn't mean that they all agree with the Republican party nor do they choose to listen to what maybe said to sway them one way or the other on any political subject matter. The button almost claims, yes we are listening to what is going to be said, because this is our graduation, BUT we are not happy about it one way or the other and we will still have our own opinions. Silent protests or rallies are usually the most impacting, and still keep peace among the other people who would like to enjoy the event.
