Bears David Oliver, left, and David Meredith wipe away tears after the United Methodist Church voted to repeal the church's ban on LGBTQ clergy on Wednesday, May 1, 2024.

The United Methodist Church overturned its 40-year ban on gay clergy Wednesday, during a meeting of the church’s top legislative body in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The church has long been divided into factions over its stance on homosexuality and gay clergy and even weighed splitting into two separate churches over the issue, CNN previously reported.

Thank goodness that's settled.

Thirty + years ago, I left the Presbyterian church for Methodism and people will recall me saying: “Jesus Christ, this is the Church of John Calvin not some clique of queer Jesuits!”
Now this? I’m really beside myself.
You do realize that Calvin played for the other team? Big article on this in Culture Wars a couple months back.
Who knew that Calvin was a pillow biter?
