The Role of Education in Voting

I had a conversation with somebody actually in Scotland last week about their response to voting. They said as a Christian, they didn't believe they should vote. I was just kind of taken aback that that actually is an opinion. But why can't you pray, ask the Lord what to vote for and then vote? I'm not sure. That might be a bit of a strong way of putting into foot. If I could get you out of the hazy fuzzy stuff and just tell me what you really think. Do I think churches should be outspoken politically? I don't know, but I think they should educate.
