Does Church Politics Still Exist?

If you're like me (frenchyriff), you probably grew up in some Baptist church or a denomination closely related. Separation of church and state is something I learned in 8th grade civics but a closer look into the church, shows that the church is not only intertwined with the state but it can behave in similar ways. Church politics can range from which deacon will run finance to subjects the pastor is not allowed to touch. Let me know if you can relate to my take on the politics or if you had a different experience. Tune in!
