Those who read the previous thread on non-believing clergy might find this interview with Robert Jensen's pastor interesting.

Here Jensen explains his reasons for affiliating with the Presbyterian Church, USA.

Not that this sort of thing is particularly rare; I was only mildly surprised to recently learn that a longtime community activist, who's as outspoken in his nonbelief as his position allows, is a member in good standing of a mainstream Lutheran church in Midtown. Still, it's interesting to see someone articulate the reasons behind such a choice.
