why do you have to ask them?
if you want to be ‘out’ you are out...
Because the church building and land, and all other property as well, is owned by the Presbytery - not by the congregation.
Even though the land and church building may have been paid for by great-grandparents of the current members, the current members must “purchase” the facility from the Presbytery at a price set by the Presbytery.
On paper, good will supposedly plays a role in the amount of money demanded for the congregation’s freedom.
I say supposedly because there usually isn’t a lot of good will to be found among authoritarian, doctrinaire progressives (they are so much smarter and well-intentioned than the rest of us, don’t you know).
