‘I know that some of you are celebrating, some are mourning and some are uncertain’
(CHRISTIAN POST) – The United Methodist Church General Conference has voted to remove a statement from its central rulebook that declared that homosexuality was “incompatible with Christian teaching.”
In a vote of 523 to 161 following around 90 minutes of debate on Thursday, the churchwide legislative gathering opted to remove a clause from the Book of Discipline, ¶ 304.3 under “Qualifications for Ordination.”
“The practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christian teaching,” read the clause, which had been originally added to the Book of Discipline in 1972.
Told you anything anti-god, and once you know and see this. Everything the gov’t does or says stems form that.
Religions are usually impossibly hypocritical, but every now and then I must give credit when they at least make an effort to align themselves with their own professed values. This is such an instance and the UMC deserves praise for making this change.

Ready for a harsh reality check? Many of the founding fathers of this Country and signers of the Declaration of Independence were Deist who believed in a creator but DID NOT believe in any one religion. Truth. Read Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” and “Age of Reason”.
