I know exactly what you mean. I hate having people question my Christianity when they find out I am pro- marriage equality and pro-choice. "But your daddy's a southern preacher! How can you believe in that junk??" I hear that a lot. I just happen to think that as far as politics is concerned, God and Jesus are above political parties, and God's probably a lot more concerned with how I treat people versus how I vote for personal freedom.
And as far as the churches engaging in their own kind of politics, I really wish that some of them would lost their tax-exempt status because what they're doing is really, really shady.
