I agree whole heartedly. There's efforts in my country to compel churches to allow anyone to be hired, even those who aren't adhering to Christian principles. Firstly, I'm not really sure why such a person would want to work for the church...

But a more interesting point is that political parties are allowed to descriminate between who has the right political views to be employed in the service of the party and who doesn't when hiring. And to my mind, what the church does is no different, you hire for belief in the organisation, so it shouldn't be made an object of politics.

But your quote also mentions the difference between hiring and being a member, and any church that discriminates when people who don't look like everyone else show up is also in the wrong.
