NEXT, THE PRESBYTERIANS

Walking down the same path as the Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church USA has elected a pro-homosexual leader:
A peace activist who supports the inclusion of gays in the ministry was elected Saturday to lead the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. for the next two years.

The selection of the activist, Rick Ufford-Chase, comes as the church prepares for a fresh round of debate at its annual convention this week on whether to repeal a ban on gay pastors.

One difference is that the Presbyterians have already fractured into various strains, many walking away from the modernism of the "mainline" version years ago. We won't see quite the drama here we've seen with the Episcopalians.

In the name of religion, these denominations continue to commit suicide.

It's interesting to me how many of these people come out of the "peace" movement, but yet mange to bring so little of it with them.
