Turning Murdoch Out: The Church Can’t Win

The call by the Christian Research Network for Rick Warren to "turn out" (to use the old expression) Rupert Murdoch from Saddleback Church is a great idea.  In theory.  The basic problem is that churches in the U.S. have become adverse to expelling anyone from the membership, and not entirely for reasons of their own …
