[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I attended this church briefly a few years ago and liked parts of it.  Then we started getting letters in the mail about disagreements people within the parish were having with one another...maybe a pastor was fired or something?  I didn't really pay attention to the details because I didn't know any of the people involved, but it turned me off of the place.

Anyway I am very liberal but I see where the OP is coming from.  I attend a United Methodist church and really appreciate the lack of this type of political talk in the sermons.  I am a huge supporter of gay rights and gay marriage though.  And I also wanted to mention that I don't think a gay pastor just saying, "my partner and I were talking...." makes a political statement unless it is followed by , "that gay marriage should be legal," or something.  You wouldn't consider a pastor telling an anecdote and saying something like, "my wife and I were talking," to be political.

except that i can't imagine why a pastor would continually refer to his wife during a sermon the way this guy referred to his "partner".[/quote]
