These are the same congregants who criticize "liberal" ministers who preach on the Beatitudes. To me the Sermon on the Mount is the basis of what should be Christianity. Now Christianity has become a political force, not what was ever intended by the guy they are supposed to be worshiping, at least according to what I learned in Sunday School.
To be clear I'm not critiquing Christian faith, my beef is with those who don't practice what they preach.
