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.

It would be interesting to hear from someone deeply involved in the UMC on these things. Many times I have asked UMCRevMom@aol.com to weigh in on these matters, since as a self-professed "UMC ordained minister," her views would have some weight. In all the times I've asked her, the response has been nothing but crickets. She's posted thousands of pro-Youcrayne articles but not a single one on this travesty.

Would someone who attends a pro-LGBTQWERT divinity school be against the LGBTQWERT agenda? Has anyone tried to stop UMC-related divinity schools from proclaiming their allegiance to homosexuality and the gay and tranny agendas? I wonder. . .

All the time in the world to shill for Youcrayne. No time to publicly oppose the ruination of her church. Why is that?

Now, let's take a vote: How many think this comment will be removed in 5-4-3-2-1-? Lolololol!
