Worthless debates
Right now there is a debate in Sweden about "Religious schools" should be allowed or not.
In Sweden so called religious school are not that religious, they need to follow the curriculum and other laws.
But there are some religious schools that are a problem, but as usual instead of dealing with them, they judge all schools as equal bad.
Almost all political parties in Sweden is for a ban in order to stop some schools. Only one political party makes it clear were the problem is.
I was on twitter the other day and I send an article to one politician who clearly is for a ban, and surprisingly he answered my tweet.
He said something like: Religion is important I know, but a private thing in Sweden 2022.
Well Pauls letter to Titus clearly tells us that we should not get involved in meaningless debates and I totally agree.
This is what Paul writes in Titus 3:8-9,
I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have put their faith in God may take care to be energetic in good works. Such things are good and profitable for people, But stay well clear of foolish disputes, genealogies, quarrels and squabbles about the law; they serve no purpose, and are worthless.
It is worthless to discuss these things, especially with journalists and politicians. They will not change and sad to say they will not listen.
It might sound hard what I'm saying but it is true.
As John Maxwell puts it: "A politician thinks of the next election, a leader thinks of the next generation.
