A couple of people have asked my opinion on the United Methodist Church’s current machinations on homosexuality. I’m not sure what to say to them.
(That’s not because I don’t know what I think, but because I’m so weary of this subject.)
Want to read every single rationalization for exclusion of gay people that you’ve ever heard? This Facebook thread is a good one for the purpose.
There’s a big vote coming tomorrow. Early indications are that it will make me sad.
I love my church. I don’t love what my denomination is about to do.
One day at a time.
