Undoubtedly. The unfortunate thing is, when Christians involve themselves in the political process, people often don't like it and disapprove, as if the political process should be steralized of anything smacking of religion or spiritual beliefs. Now, of course any policy should meet the requirements and fall within the legal limitaions already in place, but anyone belonging to any special interest group, be it religionists, gays, gun enthusiasts, prohibitionists, whatever - ought to use the process.
