Preacher kicks out 9 for not loving Bush.

I've said many times before that America's churches are throwing out G-O-D for G-O-P. If you don't believe me, read this.

A North Carolina Baptist preacher threw nine people out of church (in Baptist-speak, that means they're no longer members) because they did not support Bush! I kid you not.

(Note: This is the fourth version of the AP story that the NY Times has posted. Why this story merits so many quick revisions is anybody's guess. The more it gets revised, the more it begins favorably to the preacher. This one begins far too kindly, and kinder than the other three. It allows the preacher his say first, which downplays the reality of the event. He kicked them out, and then bowed to national public exposure and begged them back in. There is no "misunderstanding." There are no "two sides." The guy poses as a promoter for Jesus, but really is only promoting Bush.)
