Religion and politics clash over a local church's declaration that Democrats are not welcome.
Religion and Politics Clash

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.

So much for Christian values. Throwing people out of your church because of their politics is no way to run a church. I doubt if this minister will be in that church much longer.
