Faith Based Inaction

Today I saw a display on a wall at the grade school where I was subbing. The caption was "How are our parents voting?" and it had selections of who and why. There was one that so amazed me that I had to write it down:

Who will you be voting for?

We will not be participating in the voting process.

Why?

We are confident that only God can solve the problems facing man kind.

What? That's not faith, that's passivity. It's a cop-out. Do they expect God to part the clouds and solve mankind's problems with a wave of His almighty hand? The sad part is that they are not likely to be alone in this belief.
