Church and State - Time to bring back together?

[eric (^__^)]

well if what they're saying is funny, I care. The truth is always funny!

Bono is never funny let's just get that out on the table right away.

Political endorsements from the pulpit are a fucking terrible idea and I hope those pastors get slammed for doing it. They're abusing their positions of power and influence to further their own political views.

That's what the OP was about. I guess I didn't bring quite the right info the first time around, or should have given more links.

Now, pastors who swindle their congregants out of funds for "Outreaches" and other church based profit gathering are trying to change the laws that allow them to have a tax exempt status basically in trade for not having the power to publicly back a politician/ballot measure. Now they want both.

So, do we as a 60%+ Christian based majority society, allow the very people who bring spiritual enlightenment to direct us to which pollster is best gonna cover their assets?

I say no, but what do you guys think of the very fiber this country was sewn together with being snipped, cut and modified to suit the needs of the politiburo?
