Supporters of full inclusion for LGBT persons in the life of The United Methodist Church demonstrate in the observer's area at the UMC special session of General Conference in St. Louis, Missouri
Some stereotypes met in that picture.
Well, they might as well not bother, then.
Ping!
My ONLY problem with the current process is that (a) the traditionalist won and the LGBT advocates lost in the general conference that voted NOT to adopt an “LGBT inclusive” theology, (b) but instead of the losers being forced to go form a different denomination, the losers are remaining in control of the UMC and the winners, the traditionalists are to “split” off of it.
The current obligations of the two groups should be in reverse positions from where they are today, in my view, in terms of who is keeping the UMC and who is leaving it.
