77. WOW...you really hit it up there...lot's of work!
As for the rest of the post, you pretty well hit the nail on the head. Some of the churches have an amazing amount of wealth when it comes to politics don't they?

I'm a secular Christian, I like what Jesus spoke of, and try not to harm anyone. I think Gandhi had a lot of good things to say, the Buddha and Confucius as well. I like the parts about love; respect; caring for the less fortunate, the sick and the dying. I like the parts that speak of honor and dignity, the willingness to sacrifice a part of one's life to help another.

I often wonder where that church money goes when it's not spent in the political arena...certainly not to those who would benefit most...:(
