First - everyone - thank you for your comments. Going to my church, you would never know that the National Church is so far left. I was shocked, and yes, naive. That said, I don’t want to give up the fight. So, I’m not leaving until I talk to the pastor and other members. If my concern falls on “deaf ears”, then we will leave because I can’t allow my tithes to go to such radical views. (They support women’s reproductive health in the health care bill). Can you believe this? It’s like a nightmare! But, altura, my experience and opinion seems to fit yours. Thank you all. I have learned a lot from your comments.
