What became of the Fellowship?

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by one_voice (a host of the General Discussion forum).

I read that Hillary Clinton went to church today. She is a lifelong member of the United Methodist Church, but also has had dealings with a shadowy evangelical group called the Fellowship or the Family. I wonder if she still does? Her association with these folks always seemed a bit creepy.

1. Stretching... Nope. Methodists are are your more

progressive Christians, believe in evolution, science, and not fundamentalist. So what if she goes to church.

2. he is not saying the Methodists are part of fellowship.

Interesting info. in the article:

an 'invisible' world organization led by Christ"; and that in his view, their "core issue is capitalism and power."

So Christ is into capitalism and power, eh?

4. Methodists are far removed

from something like the Fellowship. That's what makes me wonder if Hillary is still associated with them. Also, they are not a church in any traditional sense.
