The mainline churches have gone woke (with very few exceptions).

Actually, they have been at the head of the line, for a long time.

[SMARTY]

Liberals love dragging these social issues into the political arena and since these Liberal clerics insist on using their position to shill for particular political issues, then maybe their tax exempt status can be revoked!

[dfwgator]

Never understood why Churches are tax-exempt in the first place.

[faucetman]

Heretic.

“She should also step down from the pulpit. She has no place being there, not knowing God nor His Word.”

AMEN!

[RoosterRedux]

I know. I was telling my fellow Methodist church members for years that the church had been the victim of a hostile takeover. They didn't believe me.

Last year, we voted to leave the UMC because they finally realized that the LGBTQ was in charge.

Good point. Trump took the high road. Not so sure I would’ve….

[subterfuge]

Can’t say I would have held back either. Although I’ve gotten a lot of practice doing that with my wife’s side of the family lately.

They don’t say prayers anymore. They lecture under the guise of prayer. Shameful.

I’d be more upset at my staff for not vetting who was giving the sermon or participating at the event. Once again Trump walked into a buzz saw that was avoidable.

When will we learn?

[HYPOCRACY]

Ha!

[piusv]

Are we talking about speaking out in the middle of a sermon/prayer service where there is supposed to be a separation of church and state? Because that’s what happened here.

[Wiser now]

Believe it or not, she is married to a man, Paul Budde.
Now, whether or not it is a marriage of convenience, I do not know.

I think this might have been an ambush engineered by Amy Klobuchar, “Chair of the bipartisan and bicameral Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies”.

The heretic in the pulpit could’ve taken a different path in her “sermon” — plain vanilla, wishy-washy, but non offensive. I think someone (AK) might have suggested that she go ghetto on him.

I could be wrong. But RATs have done worse to set him up.

Carrying luggage?

[carcraft]

Yes
