politics & the value of sin .....
The Catholic Church in South Carolina is telling its members, who voted for Obama that they cannot receive communion without confessing and repenting for their sin.
A lot of folks might be upset by this, but I'm not. I would prefer that the church keep its nose out of our secular form of governance but since it refuses to do so, perhaps, it is time to revoke the tax exempt status of churches and, too, time to have religious institutions regulated by the government.
Seriously, if churches feel comfortable with ignoring the First Amendment, then government should too and government should begin to fully regulate religion.
Such regulation would, of course, include guidelines for what can and cannot be preached from the pulpit - and, too, whether or not a particular church can practice its faith at all.
Yeah, it would probably be a terrible thing for religion and the country, but fair is fair!If the church wants to invade upon our secular form of governance, then the government MUST intrude upon and regulate religion.
Well done John Richardson!
