Ah, purity

So the ELCA is the latest church to be dragged through the media circus re: its policies on homosexuality and the clergy. Wow, I'll bet their work will make NO ONE happy.

Here's a new twist: since denominations seem to be driven to keep "sinners" out of the pulpit, I say we start a contest. What other "sins" should preclude clergy from being ordained? I mean, while we are expecting perfection of our church leaders, let's be specific. I'll start: my favorite is greed/materialism. How can we expect them to offer their coat when ask for their shirt, if they are coveting their neighbor's Lexus?

What's your favorite sin that we should stamp out among the clergy?
