34. I used to be. . .

Until the election of 2000.

At the end of Mass, our priest said something to the effect of, "Lord, please let George W. Bush be elected so we can stop the murder of innocent babies. . ." Blah, blah, blah.

I walked out of church and I've never gone back.

I don't intend to spend my Sundays sitting in on an RNC sermon.

I understand that not all parishes are overtly political. But it's getting worse. Ten years ago, there wasn't a political comment to be heard in my church. Now it's a damned fundraiser for the Republican party.

Disgusting.
