Democrats Tossed Out of Church

Just saw this in Neil’s Journal:

Democrats at one North Carolina Baptist church have been put on notice: either they support President Bush or find a new place to worship, according to a story by Evansville, IN, NBC affiliate WFIT-TV.

My favorite line in the whole story is that the preacher says his actions aren’t “politically motivated.” I don’t know how he defines “politically motivated” actions, but when you throw people out of a church because of their political views, that sounds like “political motivation” to me.

I wonder if the preacher would throw Jimmy Carter — one of the most moral men ever to serve as President — out of his church? I’m a Baptist and I’d walk out of the church in a heartbeat.

What would Jesus do? I like John Scalzi’s answer over at “Whatever:”

“My Jesus would forgive the hatefulness of your Jesus.”
