President Highlights Faith-Based Initiative at Leadership Conference

] What that means is if you're the Methodist church and you
] sponsor an alcohol treatment center, they can't say only
] Methodists, only Methodists who drink too much can come
] to our program. (Laughter.) All drunks are welcome, is
] what the sign ought to say. (Applause.) Welcome to be
] saved, so they become sober.

I'm curious. What does that mean for agnostics, atheists, or people subscribing to other religions? Okay, so a Lutheran walks into a Methodist chuch, no big deal there. A Jew in a Southern Baptist church? We're starting to head into strange territory there. A Unitarian at a Hasidic Synagogue? Ummmm... An atheist doctor at Church of Christ Science? WHOA NELLY!

There's a reason FDR got the government into the charity business on a lot of levels and that LBJ continued it. It's because while the government may be filled with bureaucracy, it stays out of religion because it doesn't want to get into religion. Why THIS administration wants to force people into church is the problem.
