Not trying to start a debate or anything, just clarifying: Does your statement imply that there is now no possible way World Vision can recover from this, that they are forever ‘accursed’?
Again...not defending them, just making sure I’m reading what I’m reading.
It looks like many Evangelicals are expressing support for the reversal decision.
EXCERPT:
Many Evangelicals and conservative Christians are expressing support for World Vision’s decision to reverse course on a policy change allowing for the hiring of gay married employees.
As the announcement of the reversal in policy change was released Wednesday, many figures commented on the new development.
Russell D. Moore, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, expressed his approval of the reversal on Twitter.
“World Vision has done the right thing. Now, let’s all work for a holistic Gospel presence, addressing both temporal and eternal needs,” tweeted Moore on Wednesday.
Assemblies of God General Superintendent George O. Wood released a statement via email expressing “appreciation for the prompt decision.”
“I therefore encourage Assemblies of God churches and individuals to continue supporting World Vision with prayers and finances, along with other Pentecostal and Evangelical charities that have similar humanitarian missions,” said Wood.
“I especially encourage Pentecostals and Evangelicals who hastily canceled their sponsorship of children in World Vision programs to immediately reinstate that support in order to ensure continuity of care for the poor children whom Christ loves.”
Mark Tooley, president of the Institute on Religion and Democracy, said in a statement, “World Vision’s reaffirmation of orthodox faith helps to ensure it has a robust, if not easy, future ahead.”

They MIGHT be able to recover from it, considering the politically correct mindset of some Christians, but should they? No, not in my opinion. Think about it....they come out in support of something God views as an abomination. They didn't make a mistake; they deliberately defied Him. Christians should be distancing themselves from WV so fast you see clouds of dust.
