I just think its dangerous to have a church take an official position--and then threaten to excommunicate dissenting voices within the church--on a political issue like this. Making it a sin to vote a certain way is kind of silly... after all, nobody wants to be out of God's bad graces protecting the rights of others.

Anywho, its all reminiscent of the older Catholic Church. Who's going to post the next 99 Theses?
