Heard on local radio news in the last couple of days of a 3000 congregation PresbyUSA leaving that affiliation and joining up with PresbyEvangelical. ??

Which one? I attended MPPC in Menlo Park when I was in college and it was a pretty good church with solid teaching (though that was a long time ago). There was talk of leaving the PCUSA but they didn't want to face the fight over their property. The biggest problem with being a part of a church like PCUSA is that when you leave, they still technically own the property and the church building and it takes a monster court fight to wrest control from them. Of course if they cared more about truth than their building they'd just walk away which is what many havge done.

I agree with what someone else said on this thread. The PCUSA is an apostate church. They are "post-Christian" which is not really Christian at all. (This isn't to say that there aren't many fine Christian people and pastors in the PCUSA, but the denomination is no longer teaching Christian truth. Other bodies like the PCA and the PEC are much more doctrinally sound, faithful bodies.
