"Conservative leaders within the United Methodist Church (UMC) have unveiled their plans to form a new denomination.

The Global Methodist Church will follow a biblical New Testament doctrine that does not recognize same-sex marriage."

I wish them luck in their endeavor, but it seems like a lot of hot air to me.  Marriage is a civil matter.......legal........courthouse........what they recognize will not have any impact on legal civil marriage.

I am Presbyterian (PCUSA) and there was alot of talk of our splitting over this issue.........it quietly went away and nothing really happened.  There were some who joined a splinter Evangelical Presbyterian Church which has very conservative views, but the horse long ago got out of the barn on that issue.  IMO of course.

I am just amazed at what all is happening these days.........up is down, right is left.........its hard to keep up.

If i wasn't a believer i would be scared to death.
