We are looking to strike fear into the insurance carrier for the Methodist Church. It's called trickle down responsibility.

I don't do shakedowns.

Then there's the little problem of the prohibition of going to court to settle church disputes (1Co. 6).

It's not really a church dispute. Those who advocate homosexuality (or any sexual immorality) are outside of the historic Christian faith, and outside the historic Methodist faith. In other words, although they are within the organization, they have violated the constituting principles.

That aside, the Catholic church has been found liable for similar negligence.

Don't be a party pooper.
