Absolutely. Though I know there are many fine clergymen in the world, there are also many weak, faithless clergymen.

When my own Methodist church got a new minister after splittin with the UMC, I ask him if he was going to address the LGBTQ issue given that our local kids were most likely being brainwashed in school.

His reply was a resounding no.

He was afraid there would be a stampede out the door.

I said that I understood that this was a "sensitive" issue but thought that the church needed to offer leadership at this dangerous time in the lives of local children...and he acted a little miffed at me.

I made the same suggestion to some members of the congregation and they all stated that they didn't think the minister should discuss "politics" from the pulpit.

Politics?

That's when I decided to stop attending.

Too many are afraid to preach from the Word of God. They’ll face a reckoning in the end.

Good comments, Rooster.

You were a lot more polite than I would have been.

I have zero tolerance for those who refuse to stand up against evil. That is what I would have told the minister.

The gender bender agenda is an anti-human agenda.

The top down cram down nature of it suggests that it is relevant to this thread...
