Welcome to the world of politics in church. I've left two mainstream denominations over these sorts of tactics and leftist based thinking. It's sad, I'm sorry it happened to you. But I simply won't tolerate it.

Maybe You can become vocal, find supporters, and challenge the pastor on his stance. Also let the church council know of your displeasure and how it may effect your attendance, and contributions (personal and financial) if it continues.

I came up against this in February, 2003 when there was a peace vigil at St. Gerald's. I attended thinking maybe this was it and I would need to find another church. BTW, our pastor presided then also.

Surprisingly, many of the prayers, along with those for loved ones in the military, were for Hussein to just give up and and get out and for the eyes of the world to be opened.

This is the first time since then really that something like this has come up.
