These folks wouldn’t recognize the gospel or scripture if you held their finger and helped them point to it.
Methodists used to be no drink, no dancing, no premarital sex and marriage was male + female done by a male pastor.
What passes for Methodists today is the church of feel good, do what tickles your tummy & groin, vote Democrat and sometimes go to church to act smug. God, Jesus and admonitions in the Bible are way down the list.
The complaining pastors are making the rope Islamists will hang all Christians with.
