I stopped going to church when it became apparent that ALL clergy were Hillary voters. They spouted Democrat lies in the pulpit. They pushed Democrat talking points non stop. The almost never even mentioned abortion in any way. The are blind, brainless milqtoasts whose bible is used to support the Democrat party.
The words “Trust but Verify” are looked upon with disdain. Christ was eventually crusified for questioning the church of his time. We should all prepare for our cross .... imho. Btw your words are true imho
about 7 years ago at mass they announced a financial settlement re abuse, I got up and walked out and have not set foot in church again other than visiting the buildings themselves in Europe and Jerusalem.
It’s not just clergy.
Most of most congregations, who pay that clergy, are progs. They will fire them. Their certifying organizations will blacklist them.
So, they decide it’s better to shut up. After all, what’s so terrible, right? Like with everyone else who is silent, they need their job.
My Brother's pastor is not a Hillary voter.
Both are evangelical Christians.
My story is similar. Add in payouts for all the pedophiles.
Exactly the same happened to me
I’m sorry you feel the way you do. I’m sorry that someone and their behavior “stopped you from going to church”. I am a Catholic Deacon who has been ministering, preaching and teaching for 20 years. Never once did I vote Democrat. Never once did I vote for, support or in any way endorse Hillary or any of her ilk.
The only points I “push” from the pulpit are the one’s Jesus Christ made during his walk on this planet. I have on numerous Sundays and weekdays, during the course of every year over the past 20, spoken out against the greatest of all human abominations: ABORTION!
I am not blind to the current issues, and although I’m no rocket scientist, I consider myself well informed and am by no means a milquetoast. (come check my firearm collection)
And the bible I preach from supports NO special interest other than Christ’s!
You do yourself a disservice by no longer worshiping God, however you do in your community, simply because you have a spineless clergyman. Either go to YOUR church and change it or as the late great Ronald Reagan said... vote with your feet... and go elsewhere. But not paying tribute to the Lord (Keep holy the Sabbath), whatever the denomination, only hurts you and your relationship with him. And your support for others in your church, who may need your conviction, is also missing.
Not all clergy are liberal spokesmen!
God bless you and yours!

I belong to the Methodist Church.i wasn’t going regularly because of my job, but tried. I love my church and I tithe It is conservative, not progressive like some. Three weeks ago they finally opened the church but: they had to take your temperature,wear masks, social distance and no handshaking. I wrote the minister until things are normal I would not be coming back. This is after we were in the process of the methodist church splitting off to remain conservative or become “The Way” a new, progressive church. That was to happen in may but got put off. In my letter I told him that I could go into Walmart or Lowe’s with no masks or restrictions but the church is being forced to comply. I told him there was a war against the church. I couldn’t help but wonder about Jesus and the leper. Would I have been turned away if I had been running a temp? I was already put off because of the scamdemic, hadn’t been allowed to see a family member in assisted living (still can’t) since March although I 100 percent understand the need in that group. Come around to this last week. Between Chick Filet and national Methodist Church sending emails on books to read battling racism with the national Methodist women allocating money to support BLM, not mentioning all the violence, I quit. I have always supported (and still) support the African Methodist Church because they are the reason we have been to fight off the progressive agenda but the outside forces are too strong. I decided and prayed explaining my reason to God. I don’t want to give money that will be used against the church. My church was going to split off, but it will cost a lot. My minister said it wasn’t the homosexual part that was the problem, (we always welcomed gay individuals,)He said the problem is the progressives do not believe in God and want to twist doctrine. Sorry for the long comment but this has been a burden on my heart.
At my church in NJ they/we pray against abortion every single time. Some of my clergy seem to be Hillary voters, but more recently (in the past few years) I think they've been becoming more red-pilled, based on what they say.
What in the world are you talking about!?
Are there only well known left-wing “churches” where you live? I can name 5 conservative churches off the top of my head in less than 10 seconds in Fairbanks. Not all Baptist either.
Come on! Look for the Truth, and you will find it and those who follow it.
