Abstract

The article discusses the proper relationship between the church and the state in Kenya. The article describes how the intersection of politics and religion is complex and intertwined compared to other nations such as the U.S., and as such requires careful theological practices to prevent political opportunism of religious ideas. Subjects under discussion include the Kenya Episcopal Conference, the ethical strategies of the Catholic church, and the relation between religion and ethnicity.
