“Yes, but she stopped attending two years ago.”

So what? It has been the official teaching of the WEL Synod for decades and it was mentioned during Bachmann’s 2006 campaign. She well knew about this issue years ago and resigned only when she was plotting a Presidential bid.

It is really admirable how quickly she threw her Church under the bus when she needed to make political hay.

She threw a bad Church under the bus, so its a good thing.

I know she's far from perfect, but she's better than Romney and Palin seemingly isn't running and Cain has too little name-recognition.

What can we do? Anyone would be better than Obama.

Sometimes, you don't know you need to throw your Church under the bus until you really look at it.

When I looked closely at the two religions I was involved with I found that the Church is not Faith. Faith can be had without Church - organized Religion. I also say, a Church can throw its parishioners under the bus as well, through misleading doctrine.

I was raised in the baptist Church and when their greed threw me under the bus I left and have nothing good to say about that organized religion. I joined the Episcopal Church and when their greed and liberal social policies became apparent, I left them as well.

I'd hate to be held personally responsible for the human failings of those that lead today's organized religions.
