Amazing - I thought the Methodists had been co-opted long ago.

There is great variation of practice among Methodist congregations. They tend to be more fervent and more closely biblical in the bible belt.

Ditto.I thought that with the exception of the Catholic Church and the Southern Baptists,western Christianity had basically knuckled under to the pervert lobby.

I gave up on the church I was confirmed in as a youth when they sponsored the ad ridiculing preparedness against anthrax after 9/11, while people were dying of anthrax poisoning. Yeah, the visqueen and duct tape ideas were pretty lame, but the UMC attacks were more political and less religious.

I've also witnessed an ever more intense trend toward socialism aimed at my nieces and nephews. My father and grandparents, who all helped build the local church, would be ashamed.

Perhaps some of the more conservative refugees from the liberal wreckage of the PCUSA, ELCA and ECUSA have joined the UMC to slow down the leftism and heterodoxy.
