What you said. :-)

I have been horrified, as an adult, to learn that many religious groups are political and will talk politics from the pulpit. I grew up where religious leaders DID NOT give political opinions outside of casual conversations as equals.

The idea of a RELIGIOUS group being a POLITICAL FORCE just creeps me out.

It's pretty scary the idea that Scientology can and did intimidate the IRS.
