IS CHRISTIANITY AT IT'S BEST? if i happened to be a congregant in this church, i'd ask for the pastor's head on a plate, a la john the baptist (figuratively of course, NOT literally. i do NOT advocate violence). a minister calls 911 on a 71 year old woman who was a church member for 50 years???????????????? WTF???????????????

Banned From Church
Reviving an ancient practice, churches are exposing sinners and shunning those who won't repent.

On a quiet Sunday morning in June, as worshippers settled into the pews at Allen Baptist Church in southwestern Michigan, Pastor Jason Burrick grabbed his cellphone and dialed 911. When a dispatcher answered, the preacher said a former congregant was in the sanctuary. "And we need to, um, have her out A.S.A.P." Half an hour later, 71-year-old Karolyn Caskey, a church member for nearly 50 years who had taught Sunday school and regularly donated 10% of her pension, was led out by a state trooper and a county sheriff's officer. One held her purse and Bible. The other put her in handcuffs. (Listen to the 911 call)............
