breakfast byte: voter turnout
“Nothing depresses me more than hearing an organized religion worry about membership. Do they think Jesus is somehow impressed by voter turnout? Do they think God gives preference to religions that appear especially popular? It’s not like God only allocates federal funding to religious organizations that meet a quota…” (Chuck Klosterman).
There is “membership” in the Body of Christ. Confusion arises when people confuse that with any kind of church membership.
