I don't care much what the pastor says in any congregation.   What 
nobody has brought up here is that a pastor is PAID by the congregation 
to which he or she preaches.   They will frame things in a way their 
congregation will accept, or they won't get paid.   However, what the 
pastor says will shed a lot of illunination on the thoughts and beliefs 
of the members of the congregation.

This is true regardless of affiliation.   A liberal minded group of 
churchgoers will listening to a liberal minded pastor.   Likewise with 
a conservative group.   It is THIS thought that makes Obama's choice to 
listen to the vitriol spewing forth from his pastor of 20 years such a 
telling indicator..

Lots and lots of people will fall behind her for this, though. And you
are right, when she is in Washington, those who oppose her will be the
nonbelievers, those who are destined for hell. Her longtime pastor
questions whether those who voted for Kerry in 2004 will get to
heaven.
