"They either know or don’t know that Obama is pro-choice— so pro-choice in fact that he refused to vote for the Illinois Born Alive Babies Act ( a law that would require physicians and nurses and health care providers to take care of babies who survived botch abortions )... yet.. they vote for someone who goes against what their church teaches... I wonder how they can reconcile being Catholic and voting for Obama... "

The United Methodist Church sent letters of support and approval to Bill Clinton for vetoing Congressionally passed Partial Birth Abortion Ban bills, TWICE! And they are the second largest Protestant Church in the USA, after the Baptists.

OK, I got you. I was explaining why they do what they do,politically. “They” being the 501 c (3) or whatever “churches”, who do not wish to lose their tax charter. I’m sure a good many Christians attend them, as well as a good many christians.
There is only one Church. It has no walls, and is concerned only with doing the will of God and preaching salvation thru the Holy Spirit, that many might be saved by faith in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. It (the Church, the Body and Bride of Christ)is not concerned with human laws or government, and knows that God will provide all needs, although there are some housekeeping rules to be elucidated from the Scriptures.

I was talking politics; the Church couldn’t care less about the tax code of the secular government.

Did I pass your test? God Bless.

It wasn’t a test and I still don’t know what is restraining you.

It was a test designed by you. “Filthy lucre”. I do not conflate the Cross with the Flag.

One is temporal, one is eternal. Can we not have a foot in the world for our family? And one in eternity?

Please enlighten.

I’ll enlighten you:

Churches should give up their IRS status in order to tell the truth.

Conservatives should work to restore the First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof . . .

Hear, hear.

The True Church has no IRS or other earthly status.

When we wish otherwise, it is only a temporal compromise.

I will hold out for this Republic, but only to a point.

We know how it ends, but we will go down fighting here!
