I saw this on a poster at my church.

"Obama is not a dark-skinned anti-war socialist who helps the poor and gives away free healthcare.
You're thinking of Jesus."

And this is why I love the church I attend.

1. Awesome John Fugelsang quote. Love it! n/t

2. If there was a church like that around me

I'd be tempted to attend. As it stands now, I won't get within 10 feet of one. Nothing but toxic energy.

3. Yep, it's pretty great.

Not to mention, our pastor is a lesbian. But I do understand where you're coming from-- most other churches around here really disgust me, what with some of the things they say.

4. GREAT POST. recommended!

5. Awesome. I wish I could find a church like that. No such luck in Orange County, CA.

All we have around where I live are right wing evangelical churches (like Warren's huge Saddleback Church) and of course the catholic churches.

9. Have you checked the Episcopal churches?

Granted, not all Episcopal churches are good ones, but the ones that are good are great. I attend an amazing church in Oakland.

If you check their website and see they're a member of either Oasis or Integrity, they're LGBT affirming and likely to be a good congregation.

13. And here we were a week or so ago saying that religion flies people into buildings!

I guess the logic behind that stupid joke has been flown into the ground now.

Thanks for this post, in my humble opinion we really need to hear more stories like this.

14. I'm going to make that into a bumper sticker for my car!!!

Hope I don't get rear-ended for it, though.
