Politics at the Pulpit

Rev. Heretic gave a Memorial Day sermon to remember this morning.

He once again decried those who use the pulpit for partisan politics, but he noted that religion has had a positive impact on politics before (most notably the Civil Rights movement), and he felt it was appropriate to talk about our foreign policy on Memorial Day weekend, when we have so many men and women who are in harm's way in part because of what he termed our misguided and unbalanced foreign policy in the Holy Land.

I'm going to miss Rev. Heretic when they appoint a permanent minister. He always gives me something to think about.
