Please limit your reply to PCUSA. PCA and RPCNA are just two of the several CONSERVATIVE Presbyterian church offshoots here in the US. Semper Fi

The title of the news report clearly identifies the organization as the PCUSA.

There are Presbyterians within the PCUSA who are trying to wrest control from these nuts. Two of the conservative, reformist groups are called the "Confessing Church Movement" and the "New Wineskins Initiative." They OPPOSE the hierarchy's tilt against Israel, their determination to eliminate ordination standards, and other nutty left wing ideas. They are PCUSA Presbyterians who are NOT willing to let the radicals gain complete control. They are fighting back.

My minister is one of these and my PCUSA congregation may decide to withdraw from the denomination if, at the upcoming General Assembly, the so-called PUP report, which refuses to uphold ordination standards, is adopted. In other words, don't brand all Presbyterians as Islamofascists and left wing extremists. A majority of PCUSA members don't even approve of what is being done by the nuts running things in Louisville.
