As we all know, SpongeBob Squarepants has come under heavy fire from the religious right over the past few weeks. One church in Clevland is bucking the trend. Check out this excerpt from the United Church of Christ's website:

SpongeBob meets with the Rev. John H. Thomas, the UCC's general minister and president, in his office. Explains Thomas, "No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, SpongeBob, you're welcome here."

To see the rest of Spongebob's tour, just follow the link above. The site makes no mention of Patrick Starfish though. Hmmm...
