The third largest denomination in America is set to split up over gay marriage.
One branch will be spun off and will continue to opposeinterracialgay marriage and gay clergyand casual Fridays.
The remaining branch, which sounds like it will be the bulk of the church, will allow gay marriage and gay clergyand wet T-shirt contests.
United Methodist Church is expected to split over gay marriage, fracturing the nation’s third-largest denomination
Friday’s announcement came as new sanctions were set to go into effect in the church, which would have made punishments for United Methodist Church pastors who perform same-sex weddings much more severe: one year’s suspension without pay for the first wedding and removal from the clergy for any wedding after that.
Instead, leaders from liberal and conservative wings signed an agreement saying they will postpone those sanctions and instead vote to split at the worldwide church’s May general conference.
They said the agreement was brokered by Kenneth Feinberg, the mediation expert who handled the compensation fund for victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, among other major negotiations.
"See you all in Hell!"
Yes, and this is fantastic. Heretics needed to be cut off from the church, and this is exactly what needed done.
Another fantastic win for Christianity, and separation from the those who oppose the G-d of the Bible.
It think that both the Homosexual neo-methodists and the Normative methodists can both agree with that sentiment.
Homosexuals believe in Adam and Steve and glorify homosexuality. They have to be glad to see the Normative people skedaddle too.
