Baptists and Kerry Voters

MOJ readers may know that Southern Baptists have recently had their own dispute over a church leader excluding those who voted for John Kerry from significant activities or communal relations within the church (in this case, pastor expelling them from membership in a local congregation).  Christianity today.com collects the latest on the story here.  You might compare -- and contrast -- the details to the flap last year over the Catholic bishop or two who went so far as to state that communion should be refused to any voter for pro-abortion candidates (not just to the candidates themselves).
