Amazing how far left the United Methodists have moved. I have been told (I am not old enough to remember) that Methodists use to be some of the most conservative (in our current definition of "conservative") people around. What has happened?

What happened? The Methodists' descendants turned away from God.

What has happened?

It is/was Modernism a.k.a. (theological)liberalism. Short Answer at the end of the 19th century certain seminaries began to teach that the Bible contained errors. The compromise became a slipperly slope to where 3 or 4 generations later we have mainline denominations dominated controlled by anti-Christian ministers.
