I too am very supportive of the church being more socially and politically active..particularly when it comes to our youth. When I was growing up I was always involved in political and social organizations. Voter Registration/Education is one of my passions. I think the major problems with most chuches(at least in my area) is that the leadership in the church don't know much about what the political and social issues are and if they don't know they will never be able to effectively communicate the issues to the congregation. Fortunately I belong to a church where our pastor is very politically aware and we have a lot of Greek members and community activists who encourage our members and teach our youth the importance of being politically active and hold workshops monthly to increase participation
