The PCA would do well to remove “Presbyterian” from their name to further distance themselves from the heretical behavior of the like-named group of hedonists.

Why bother? The PCUSA will be gone in a decade.

Why should Christians allow a bunch of sodomites to coopt their name?

The PCUSA would do well to remove "church" from their name.

(Yesterday, as part of a lobbying event I was involved with I marched past Abe Lincoln's church in Springfield, IL. I was working over in my mind how to describe it. "First Presbyterian Ecclesial Organization"? "First Presbyterian Club"? )

Why should they give up their founding? It's a pity they can't sue to get the PCUSA to remove the word "Presbyterian" from their name, since they are the ones who are apostate.

I understand the Baptists have gone through this schismatic issue over whether women should "submit" to men in marriage. Certainly the Methodists have been bedeviled for years by the screeching of the "reproductively challenged" in their ranks.

Hold the line, people. Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Wesley and the other Reformers were not trying to be "progressive." They were trying to return the church to its apostolic roots and stop the innovations and mutations that were eviscerating the basic teachings. Sort of the way a good gardener clears out the dead wood and misshapen branches and cuts the suckers off from the bottom of the trunk of a tree, and roots out the smothering vines from around it.
