When some UMC ministers choose to get their Masters in Divinity from "schools" like this one , you get ministers who then shill for the LGBTQWERTY agenda, and I suspect that some of them also shill mightily for Youcrayne, and other leftist/globalist causes. Just a hunch, of course. . . !

One observes of the "open and affirming" that it specifically attests to a revulsion at Romans 1, meaning that some in the UMC and many in the UCC reject the bible in part. Thus is their theology a matter of "shopping around."

Wiki summarizes nicely, and notes the opposition as well.
