Is it wrong for politicians to dictate to religions. McGreevey had a priest forcibly kicked out of a Catholic church. McGreevey stages his campaign events at churches.

Exactly. The politicians love to play the religion card portraying themselves as devout followers. However, they want to distance themselves from certain tenets of their religion when it ma prove harmful to their political ambitions. They don't like it when they are revealed as the hypocrites they really are. They want to pick and choose what beliefs are acceptable, i.e., the religion must conform to their personal credo. Kerry, the "devout" Catholic, is an enthusiastic supporter of abortion and he can marry again without an annulment. Yet he would scream like a stuck pig if the Church prohibited him from receiving Communion. I guess this makes him a CINO.

Thanks for reminding me of that I had forgotten. I can't wait till Bret runs for Governor again. After 4 years of McGreedy even the people in NJ will be ready for a conservative governor.

"Is it wrong for politicians to dictate to religions."

The right of an association to set conditions of membership is a first amendment right.

This means determining who is not a member.

The church is defined as a group who support human life.
The governor is not in that group.
