It is rather distressing how much politics has injected itself into religion, and, to a certain extent, how religion has affected politics. The former yields mostly bad results, while the latter is somewhat mixed. The leftist politics has damaged religion, but the far left would prefer to eliminate religion. God is invoked by the left, generally insincerely. On the right, especially in the South, religion is often into politics. This is generally positive as it reinforces respect for/of life and the practice of Biblical ethics/morals. One would think that Jews would be swinging to the right and would welcome some politics in the religion. They mostly stick to the left, where the Jews and the Jewish homeland are not well received, to state it mildly. It is mostly the religious, ultra religious that are on the right (and this seems to hold with Christians). We all should be on God's side.

Here here, the values that Judaism and Christianity bring are the result of being on God’s side.
