Went to St. Tim's once because a dear friend made it clear it was really important to her. This was shortly before the last Presidential election. I have NEVER walked out of a service in my life. I did that day. The pastor actually told the congregation to not vote Democratic because the Dems were pro-abortion. Sorry, how I vote is not the business of the Church.

I had basically walked away from organized religion many years ago. I am and always will be deeply spiritual but not in a church setting. It is things like my experience at St. Tim's that will keep me away. And the fact that it seems there is a request for money every five minutes.
