For the UMC "gay" is the non-fruit-bearing evidence of the root of sin, and it traces back through its routes of nutrition to the root, which is the Sin principle. "Gay" is a non-Vine entity, though clinging to It/Him may simulate the Vine and assume His identity, it is not of God.

Therefore (mixing my metaphors), until the fragment sheds the parasitic infection, it is senseless to claim separation (1 Cor. 6:14-7:1) until the spore, the leaven, is expunged from the constitution of the loaf. That includes the gender-bridging taint of female ordination to the diaconary or eldership, to start with.

Amen to that. Women hastened the decline of the UMC precipitously.
