Imagine my surprise as I checked some blogs I go to and found the news that a church in North Carolina has begun to excommunicate its Democrat members, and demand they repent and support Bush. No, this is not a joke.

Religion and Politics Clash
Religion and politics clash over a local church's declaration that Democrats are not welcome.
East Waynesville Baptist asked nine members to leave. Now 40 more have left the church in protest. Former members say Pastor Chan Chandler gave them the ultimatum, saying if they didn't support George Bush, they should resign or repent. The minister declined an interview with News 13. But he did say "the actions were not politically motivated." There are questions about whether the bi-laws were followed when the members were thrown out.

The pastor, Chan Chandler, is around 31 years old. Apparently, he told the members of the church that if they voted for John Kerry or were Democrats, they were against the church. They had a choice to "repent" their sin or leave. [/quote]

Also the Vice President has begun referring to Democrats (and by extension Democrat Christians) as "The Other Faith".

This sickens and outrages me.
