That said watch the story, if we can't appoint a Methodist to political office that is real trouble for our country.
The Bible itself contains quite a lot of “anti-gay ideology.”
This is just amazing.
What are we coming to?
Not sure which UMC he attends but many congregations are rather open and willing to make that left turn.
Talk about your anal microscope exams though.....
The convoluted reasoning that is political correctness comes full circle. Homosexuals used to be thought of as abnormal. They have lobbied persistently and are now supposed to be viewed as normal. Therefore, someone who believes that it is abnormal for a man to insert his penis into the anus of another man is himself deemed "abnormal" by the NY Times, that arbiter of all things.
If that attitude ever becomes widely accepted in America, then who gives a cr*p about what happens to her.
What? United Methodists don’t disapprove of homosexuality. The ones I see have rainbow stickers on their welcome signs in support of ... “diversity.”
If Jocelynn “we must teach our children to masturbate” Elders could be surgeon general, ANYONE can be!
To put it mildly.
A Protestant can't be Surgeon General? Since when?
America was founded as a Protestant country. Hell, Catholics who attempted to settle in the colonies were turned back (mid 18th century).
And Methodism has been an integral part of America since that same time.
What madness to even say such a thing.
But we know what the stone faced queer "activists" (er, molesters) are like: psychotically obsessed with forcing their sickness on Americans.
I think we are bringing back the religion test for officials.
Puh-leese. He’s unqualified becasue he doesn’t approve of homosexual activity? Is thsi Brave New World? Are we the Soviet Union?
OH give me a break!!! The United Methodist Church is one of the most homosexual loving churches there is. I know, I was a Methodist for 20 years before I quit because of their apostacy.
If this guy is a Methodist, then he will not “judge” or have any discernment and will do the liberal’s bidding.
BTW, isn’t Hitlery a Methodist? Didn’t she and Bill attend a Methodist church in Washington DC after the Monica incident?
See? First they bashed the Mormons, now they are coming for the Methodists.
The nuns used to call some people "cafeteria Catholics" (the cafeteria reference was to a kind of a la carte restaurant that no longer exists, but you get the idea) who would pick and chose which tenets of Catholic doctrine you wished to believe or which restrictions you would follow. Like Rudy on abortion.
Anyway, people like Hillary are pretty much "cafeteria Christians", they use Christianity to justify whatever postions they have chosen for altogether different reasons.
