That’s it! I’m moving to Canada. After a long election season, many American voters will find it difficult to accept defeat. And while it is hard, democratic life demands the regular practice of political concession—admitting that, however just your cause, the people did not agree with you. Shadi Hamid and Matthew Kaemingk discuss how Christianity and Islam can help with electoral patience and learning to lose gracefully. To bow one’s head in prayer is to accept that the world (and the election) is beyond your control. And while this might be “the most important election of our lifetime,” there are much more important things in our lives than elections.
