Oh, those whacky Methodists

Post by RiverguyVT »

I've posted here before that I left the UMC approx 7 yrs or so ago.

The first article caught my eye,

https://www.christianpost.com/news/meth ... stors.html

and led me to linking to a second story from the first:

https://www.christianpost.com/news/cons ... chism.html
For decades, the UMC has debated whether to change their official stance, as outlined in the Book of Discipline, that labels homosexuality a sin, bars the ordination of noncelibate homosexuals, and prohibits the blessing of same-sex marriages.
and
Every attempt to change the UMC's stance at General Conference has failed, largely because of delegates from Africa and elsewhere abroad who tend to be more conservative.
solution? Back to the first article. Just put the pastors out. LOL. The only thing holding that church together is the African contingent. And God bless 'em. The US contingent is a hot mess of liberalism not theology.
So I put (the dead dog) on her doorstep!
