Christian Anarchism:
Since there are too many "flavors" of Christian Anarchism on the inter webs, I'll yet submit my "own" definition of Christian Anarchism. When I mean Christian Anarchism (mostly the Anarchism part), I mostly mean the ethics around what to do with the state (government), I've came to the conclusion in 2017 that I can no longer do any political actions because I saw the extreme wickedness of politics (including 3rd party politics, in which I came out of). What do I mean about political actions? Voting in government democracy, supporting a political party or candidate, and discussion in length of politics of which political party do I favor over another. Now, if one ask me or press onto me about what candidate I prefer over another candidate, I'll probably give them either "Jesus is my King" or if one does a hypothetical question to me, I'll give them a hypothetical answer. Other than that, I will not be participating in voting or cheering on a particular candidate. After some thought about my anti-political stance, I've came to a particular way of looking at things. I look at Christianity as my "nation" and the local church as the "city" that I live in, the denomination that I'm associated with is the "political party" (without being too political about it) that I'm in, but I will cheer on my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ to become more theologically conservative meaning actually believing in what the Bible says and try to live out the principles of what the Bible teaches. History of my thought process to this form of Christian Anarchism: Libertarian 2008 and 2012 Consitution Party in 2016 (basically a protest vote against the Libertarian Party) 2017 Quit voting 2020 Pass the test Christian Anarchist / Anti State Libertarian test, meaning I actually followed through of not voting, my major concern heading into 2020 even when I made the decision to not vote in a state / gov democracy ever again, was that it was "easy to say no to voting" right after a major election. To make things simple and easier to understand for non ultra libertarian / anarchism, I just point to the Amish of the type of Christian Anarchism that I subscribe to.
