Sunday Special
A Big Misunderstanding
Rev. Chan Chandler
of the
East Waynesville Baptist Church, who
has gained national attention for kicking out church members for refusing to
support President Bush in the November election, now claims that the whole
matter was "a great misunderstanding." In October, Chandler had
reportedly told his congregation that anyone who intended to vote for John
Kerry should 'either leave the church or repent'. Nine members were kicked
out last Monday, and another 40 resigned.
According to the Winston-Salem
Journal, Chandler
told 'WLOS-TV in
Asheville that the actions were not politically motivated'.
