I'll try to be short, but a bit of back story.
Religion has not been a part of my life for better than 25 years. My wife on the other hand has been searching for a Christian church to attend and maybe join since she moved to Utah about 13 years ago. About 2 years ago she started attending one she enjoyed and felt good about.
Wifey had always asked me to go with her on Sunday's and talked highly of the people, the message and I had met several of the members. 8 weeks ago I attended a service for the first time, as wifey was singing in the choir. Since then I have attended every Sunday service, and a few weekday activities.
Now, on the the question. The first service I attended as I was walking in the door I looked for the no weapons sign and didn't see one, and I thought "thats good",
SO last week, I was at a function and carrying, towards the end of the get together, the Pastor got me alone and asked that I not carry to the services, it was a very cordial discussion, and I don't really have a problem with it. but it got me to looking deeper into the "political" ideas of the church, and found that they are STRONG ANTI-GUN advocates Church wide and nationwide(except as they word it, they are fine with sporting rifles and shotguns) But spell out NO handguns.
Should it not be a big deal? I can't/won't ask wifey to leave, BUT,,,,,,,,
In the great wisdom of this board, what say the Armed Christians of America?
