The UMC had a Bishop vote to change some wording in the church constitution to be more LGBT friendly. It got shot down while everything else passed. The reaction of the church leadership was outrage.

Did I mention the church is run by the Bishops? So the Bishops were outraged that they voted down their bills.

Yep; there is a growing riff between the UMC “leadership” and the rank-and-file conference delegates. The same thing is happening in the Presbyterian church. One church here in each of these denominations recently left the national organization over doctrinal “liberalism” (i.e., almost anything goes.) When you believe in everything, you believe in nothing.
