There was a thread in the last day or two discussing Dean, and in the article it mentioned that Dean had been attending a Presbyterian(? not sure, but it was a mainline denomination) church, but left that denomination because of a disagreement over a bike trail. Really.

Found it:
Democrat Howard Dean 'thinks' he's a thinker (George Will) In the 4th paragraph.
"So, the argument about the public meaning of marriage is merely a semantic quibble important only to the "pretty religious"? Dean has said of his faith that "I don't think it informs my politics," and that he became a Congregationalist "because I had a big fight with a local Episcopal church about 25 years ago over a bike path." Fine. His faith, whatever it is, is his business and no disqualification for the presidency. But his qualifications supposedly include a searching intellect. Where is the evidence?
