GOP presidential contender Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and her husband Marcus preemptively left their church of more than ten years just weeks before she announced her candidacy to avoid association with its extremist views. Salem Lutheran Church in Stillwater, Minnesota, has faced criticism this week for its anti-Catholic views, including preaching that the Pope is the Antichrist.
Bachmann has long been a favorite of religious conservatives for her outspoken views on her faith, but her decision to sever ties with her church for the sake of her presidential campaign is surprising many:
Now you know your church must be really out there, if you have to leave it, so you can run for President. Also it most be really back if the Church is against Catholics big time..
so after 10 years in this church, Bachmann’s leave:
“It’s abhorrent, it’s religious bigotry,” Bachmann said then. “I love Catholics, I’m a Christian, and my church does not believe that the pope is the antichrist, that’s absolutely false.” She remained a member of the church for years after, but as Bachmann’s political ambitions got bigger, she began to distance herself. When she decided to run for president, Bachmann seemed to realize she could no longer belong to an organization that formally endorses intolerance.
Now she no longer anti-Catholics, she love them.. MMMM, This isn’t surprising coming from person who thinks that African-American were better off as slaves, then they are now.. Whom also thinks we should do away with minimum wage.
So what others skeletons does she have in her Closet????
