Barry Lynn<\/a> is an ordained minister who believes with every ounce of his being that government should stay out of the religion business. His religious affiliation is with the left leaning United Church of Christ. (The college I graduated from is sponsored by the UCC and while on choir tours of the country, I attended services in many of their churches)<\/p>\n
