“Whether you like it or not, members of the PCUSA consider themselves, and are generally considered to be, Calvinists”
And Dignity and Catholics for a Free Choice consider themselves Catholics. What is your point?.
Dr. Eckleburg; forgive me for breaking my promise, please.
Nice comparison to PCUSA.

PCUSA is the largest Presbyterian denomination in the United States. Pro abortion Catholic groups are not denominations for one thing, and they do not represent the majority of Catholics and certainly do not represent the faith.
Faulty analogy.
Presbyterians are usually Calvinists. (Unless they decide, individually or as a smaller group that they’re not and then they can be any old thing according to how they interpret the Bible.)
Dignity and Catholics for a Free Choice do not believe what the Catholic Church teaches. (And they can’t just decide, individually or as a smaller group that they don’t believe the teachings of the Catholic Church or they ARE any old thing according to how they interpret the Bible.)
So maybe it should have been said that some Calvinists believe officially that homosexuals should be ordained. The main word would be OFFICIALLY. They are OFFICIALLY accepting and therefore teaching that overt homosexuality is acceptable.
However, they ARE NOT a recognized denomination.
