Any church can become political. All they have to do is give up their 
tax exempt status. What do a bunch of brain washed teens know?

The tax status of churches is the real issue. Fundamentalist churches 
want to play politics and be tax exempt at the same time. Just remember, 
these are the same people who gave Bush and the Republicans the election 
in 2000 and 2004.
