The Methodists appear to be on a verge of a Schism over issues of homosexuality.
I know denominations have had schisms in recorded history over various issues.
I never thought that acceptance of homosexuality would ever be such an issue with regard to religious denominations. But yet, that is where we are.
The Bee’s skewering is well-deserved, but in actuality South Korea has many missionaries here in the U.S.
I almost bought this! I had to check if it was the bee!!
It’s funny because it’s so true.
What’s sad is that the UMC really does need Christian missionaries to bring the Word of God to their apostate and heretical souls.
Good one, Bee.
LMAO bump!
I’ve learned of several foreign Christians being sent to America to evangelize us. Yes; we are that bad.
This isn’t really satire at this point. It needs to happen, and is starting to happen already. (I’m on the board of an international Christian outreach based in the US; our converts and native leaders in West Africa are pushing forward plans to set up their own outreach stations and share the Gospel in dark, godless places like England and other European countries.)
If I understand things, this is not necessarily satire.
Doesn’t belong in the Bee — reverse missions are actually happening.
I commented to my wife the other day that our church should be sending missionaries to East Boise and the North End of Boise, as they are “progressive” strongholds in the area. (I use the term strongholds as it also relates to what is happening in the spiritual realm in those areas.)
Don’t need to travel to Africa or South America! Plenty of work right here.
