I would be so curious to watch if a certain Methodist reverend, so daily evident on another thread, would weigh in on the schism in the Methodist church nationwide.

For my own view, these schisms are predictable as the human response to much is that amazing phenomenon as "people walk away" and take their wallets with them. Annheuser-Busch, Target, FOX and, rather quickly, the City of San Francisco are learning this.

"4,876 Methodist Churches Leave the Pro-Abortion United Methodist Church" is a lot of churches, a lot of assets both human and financial. Because politics can be so "inclusive."

The united methodist church is also extremely anti-gun. I believe they may have been behind origin of handgun control inc. Any believers that need a new home, check out the missouri synod lutherns. Bible based, and conservative.

With so many churches leaving, the denomination will become much more radical and further from Biblical beliefs, which will cause attendance to decline even further even if the number of churches stays the same.

That is..if she /it is not whom I suspect you suspect her/it of being.
