I agree. I don’t know what the details of that congregation’s affiliation and ties with the UCC are but I suspect they’re very weak. Apart from that particular issue, one shouldn’t ignore the fact that many mainline denominations have been corrupted by ultra-liberal and leftist secular political ideologies. Thomas C. Reeves wrote a good book on the subject, “The Empty Church.”
Yes, the Methodist Church has drifted left — and Episcopalians too. I’ll have to look for that book.
We need to stay on this topic of Obama’s church — there’s a lot more to this than meets the eye, I think.
