I think it makes a difference if the majority of the congregation is homogenous. The issue is probably much less who's attending service and more so who's in control of the church's budget, policies, and hiring.

At least in the Protestant churches I used to attend, the lay councils held all the power and some of their battles could be truly epic, even if behind the scenes.
