QUEERS/Homosexuals a chance to speak for themselves in their own words: THE HOMOSEXUAL MANIFESTO By Michael Swift, "Gay Revolutionary." Reprinted from The Congressional Record of the United States Congress. First printed in Gay Community News, February 15-21 1987 "We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us. Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we will embrace them when they weep. Women, you say you wish to live with each other instead of with men. Then go and be with each other. We shall give your men pleasures they have never known because we are foremost men too, and only one man knows how to truly please another man; only one man can understand the depth and feeling, the mind and body of another man. All laws banning homosexual activity will be revoked. Instead, legislation shall be passed which engenders love between men. All homosexuals must stand together as brothers; we must be united artistically, philosophically, socially, politically and financially. We will triumph only when we present a common face to the vicious heterosexual enemy. If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in your cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies. We shall write poems of the love between men; we shall stage plays in which man openly caresses man; we shall make films about the love between heroic men which will replace the cheap, superficial, sentimental, insipid, juvenile, heterosexual infatuations presently dominating your cinema screens. We shall sculpt statues of beautiful young men, of bold athletes which will be placed in your parks, your squares, your plazas. The museums of the world will be filled only with paintings of graceful, naked lads. Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable and de rigueur, and we will succeed because we are adept at setting styles. We will eliminate heterosexual liaisons through usage of the devices of wit and ridicule, devices which we are skilled in employing. We will unmask the powerful homosexuals who masquerade as heterosexuals. You will be shocked and frightened when you find that your presidents and their sons, your industrialists, your senators, your mayors, your generals, your athletes, your film stars, your television personalities, your civic leaders, your priests are not the safe, familiar, bourgeois, heterosexual figures you assumed them to be. We are everywhere; we have infiltrated your ranks. Be careful when you speak of homosexuals because we are always among you; we may be sitting across the desk from you; we may be sleeping in the same bed with you. There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class weaklings. Highly intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less. Those who oppose us will be exiled. We shall raise vast private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you. We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual love and honor are invincible as were the ancient Greek soldiers. The family unit-spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy and violence--will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated. Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic laboratory. They will be bonded together in communal setting, under the control and instruction of homosexual savants. All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only gods are handsome young men. We adhere to a cult of beauty, moral and esthetic. All that is ugly and vulgar and banal will be annihilated. Since we are alienated from middle-class heterosexual conventions, we are free to live our lives according to the dictates of the pure imagination. For us too much is not enough. The exquisite society to emerge will be governed by an elite comprised of gay poets. One of the major requirements for a position of power in the new society of homoeroticism will be indulgence in the Greek passion. Any man contaminated with heterosexual lust will be automatically barred from a position of influence. All males who insist on remaining stupidly heterosexual will be tried in homosexual courts of justice and will become invisible men. We shall rewrite history, history filled and debased with your heterosexual lies and distortions. We shall portray the homosexuality of the great leaders and thinkers who have shaped the world. We will demonstrate that homosexuality and intelligence and imagination are inextricably linked, and that homosexuality is a requirement for true nobility, true beauty in a man. We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution. Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our masks."

Homosexuals reproduce sexually by child molestation and by grooming them with Pornography. As liberal socialist progressives in California demand that pedophiles be called a sexual orientation just like homosexuality, a growing outraged American public is now pushing back without fear to protect the future generations of Americans from their pervert's system of queering the schools to groom more children into emotionally damaged, sexually confused victims who suffer the scars of abuse into adulthood.

The sad part about this epidemic is that so many of those in Hollywood, and the music and entertainment industry have also been sexually molested as teens and now push the homosexual agenda. Homosexual Pedophile Agenda Exposed by Gay Leaders in Their Own Words! Watch this video below:

The Chosen's Pride flag controversy (Dallas Jenkins responds)

How should Christians respond to Pride Month and the controversy surrounding gay employees in Dallas Jenkins workforce the Chosen?

Answer

 

 Over the past several decades, “Pride Month” has grown from obscurity into a major cultural event, especially in the United States. In America, June is designated for this celebration of non-traditional sexuality and gender expression. Pride Month also seeks to recognize contributions of LGBTQ-identifying persons. As with other cultural issues, Christians find themselves torn regarding the best response to Pride Month. It’s important to stand for biblical ideals. We ought not celebrate what Scripture condemns. Yet the gospel is not served if Christians contribute to false stereotypes about the faith. When sexuality and gender are filtered through unbiblical cultural views, the best tactic for most Christians is like that of the “conscientious objector”: polite, peaceful, firm refusal to actively participate in Pride Month events without demanding others to follow suit.

As the name suggests, Pride events presume that behaviors and attitudes once considered immoral should be embraced, even cheered, rather than being criticized. This is not the sole purpose of Pride Month events; activists also intend to remind people that history’s important contributors include those identified with LGBTQ ideas. Events such as parades and rallies are common. Pride flags—a series of colored bars representing homosexuality and transgenderism—are flown in some communities. The concept of Pride Month has been heavily commercialized; many companies incorporate Pride Month imagery in packaging, commercials, press releases, social media, and so forth. Even within the LGBTQ community, some object to these developments, seeing them as insincere pandering.

Faced with commercials, flags, statements, and public events endorsing “Pride,” Bible-believing Christians often feel they need to do something or say something to counter the month-long wave of hype. Scripture denounces many actions and attitudes championed during Pride Month as serious sins (1 Corinthians 6:9–11). The Word calls us to be clear about truth (Proverbs 12:17). Yet the same Bible encourages tact, common sense, and discretion (Proverbs 18:6; Matthew 10:16). It’s all too easy to be baited into fruitless arguments and a feeling of frustration (Proverbs 29:9). That which we say and do should be guided by thoughtfulness rather than by volatility (Proverbs 15:1).

Ultimately, Christians are called to be witnesses of the Way, the Truth, and Life (John 14:6; Acts 1:8). Our obligation is to offer truth to those who are interested (Matthew 28:19). We cannot conform non-believers to biblical expectations (1 Corinthians 2:14). Western culture has long embraced views of premarital sex, drug and alcohol use, morality, and other ideas that run counter to a biblical worldview. That a fallen world should continue to fall further is not surprising but expected (Romans 1:24–31). Instead of scuffling to “resist” or “stop” things like Pride Month, Christians should remember what it means to be “in” a culture without being “of” that culture (John 17:11; 18:36).

In short, the best Christian response to Pride Month is polite non-participation. Followers of Jesus should decline to have anything to do with “Pride” events. We should speak truth in love when given an appropriate chance (Ephesians 4:15). It’s good to articulate why we cannot endorse the ideas or assumptions behind the promotion of “Pride.” We should avoid giving worldly culture exactly what it wants: ammunition with which to falsely accuse the gospel of hateful intolerance (1 Peter 3:15–17). Many will be offended by truth spoken in humility and love (1 Peter 4:4)—but that means their conflict is with God, not with us (Galatians 1:10).

Believers cannot change cultural views on sexuality by trying to change culture itself in some broad sense. All we can do is reach individual people (Hebrews 8:10–12; Romans 14:11–12), letting the Holy Spirit work from there. When we are winsome and loving, those who respond with hate have none but themselves to blame (Proverbs 9:8; Psalm 109:1–5). Whether surrounding culture chooses holiness or depravity, our mission is unchanged: calling sinners to repentance (Luke 5:32). We can’t expect society to do that for us (Joshua 24:15).

The mindset behind Pride Month is deeply immoral. Sin is to be mourned over, not celebrated (Romans 1:32). The “pride” in Pride Month has nothing to do with a satisfied happiness compatible with godliness (Galatians 6:4; 2 Corinthians 7:4). Arrogant bragging about immorality is the kind of “pride” leading to God’s judgment (Proverbs 8:13; 16:8–9; Psalm 10:4).

At the very least, Christians should never actively participate in anything that blatantly defies God (Acts 5:29), even though defiance of worldly expectations concerning Pride Month might mean suffering social and legal consequences. When so led by the Spirit, Christians can and should give a sound explanation for their views (1 Peter 3:15–17) and why others would be wise to follow suit. What we should not do is respond in panic or with fear that we have “lost” somehow when culture turns away from God.

First Peter 4:14–19 (ESV) summarizes this perspective efficiently:

If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name. For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? And “If the righteous is scarcely saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”

Therefore let those who suffer according to God’s will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

New King James Version

⁹ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, ¹⁰ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity

Romans 1: 18-32

¹⁸ The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, ¹⁹ since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. ²⁰ For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

²¹ For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. ²² Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools ²³ and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.

²⁴ Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. ²⁵ They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

²⁶ Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. ²⁷ In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

²⁸ Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. ²⁹ They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, ³⁰ slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; ³¹ they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. ³² Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Is God Male or Female?

An overview of God revealed as a male in Scripture and a critique of feminist biblical revisionism.

by Simon Turpin on February 2, 2021

Also available in Español and English

In teaching his disciples how to pray, Jesus said, “Our Mother in heaven….”1 No, wait, that’s not what he said! Today, however, there are some people who think it is. The gender revolution that has been taking place in our culture for the last sixty years is not only impacting how people view themselves but also how they view God. A lot of contemporary theology has seen Christian organizations,2 feminist theologians,3 and cultic groups4 use feminine language to refer to God. After all, it is argued, the Bible uses feminine imagery to refer to God, so it must be fine to refer to God as Mother. This is why it is important to look at the unchanging Word of God rather than the ever-changing opinion of man to see how God refers to himself. Before we go on, it is important to note that this question is not about the equality of men and women. Both are made in God’s image and are therefore equal (Genesis 1:27). Rather, it is about who gets to decide how we speak about God and how we address him in prayer: people or God?

The authors of the Bible, however, were not unaware of non-masculine language to describe God.

Although those who use feminine language to describe God recognize the Bible uses male pronouns to describe him, they argue that this is because the Bible was written in a patriarchal culture, so of course it is going to refer to God using masculine pronouns. The authors of the Bible, however, were not unaware of non-masculine language to describe God, as even in ancient patriarchal societies, many cultures worshipped female deities (see Judges 2:13, 10:6; Acts 19:27–28). It is important to remember the Bible is God-breathed (theopneustos) and, therefore, the words that are used to describe God are his own (2 Timothy 3:16).5 God is not bound by culture (1 Peter 1:24–25) as he can come in the midst of any culture and communicate his truth from Genesis to Revelation. God has chosen to reveal himself to his creation in predominately male terms (see below).

It is important to remember the Bible is God-breathed (theopneustos) and, therefore, the words that are used to describe God are his own.

Feminine Imagery to Describe God

Those who believe it is ok to describe God in feminine terms refer to passages in the Bible that use feminine or maternal images for God: a woman in labor (Isaiah 42:14), a nursing mother (Isaiah 49:15), a comforting mother (Isaiah 66:13), or as a mother bear (Hosea 13:8).6 In Deuteronomy 32, God, through Moses, rebukes Israel, using both male and female imagery to describe its origin:

Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, that flutters over its young, spreading out its wings, catching them, bearing them on its pinions, the Lord alone guided him, no foreign god was with him …You were unmindful of the Rock that bore you, and you forgot the God who gave you birth. (Deuteronomy 32:11–12, 18)

The female imagery used in the above passages cannot be used to conclude God is female. For example, in Deuteronomy 32:4, God is described as “The Rock, his work is perfect…,” but no one would suggest from this that God is a piece of marble or granite.

The female imagery used in the above passages cannot be used to conclude God is female. For example, in Deuteronomy 32:4, God is described as “The Rock, his work is perfect…,” but no one would suggest from this that God is a piece of marble or granite. Metaphors are used to compare the characteristic of one thing with that of another thing, but this does not mean the one thing (God) is the other thing (a rock). The comparison of God to a rock expresses his power and dependability. Deuteronomy 32:6 also says that God is Israel’s Father (ʾāb) who created them. The few passages in the Old Testament that contain feminine imagery are not meant to suggest God is female but are simply communicating truths to us about God through that imagery.

Another way people see a feminine component in God is the use of feminine nouns; such as the Hebrew word for “spirit” (rûach) and “wisdom” (ḥākmâ, Proverbs 8:1). But feminine nouns in no way mean that the spirit is a feminine person. The equivalent term in Greek for spirit, pneuma, is neuter (i.e., no gender). Moreover, in Genesis 1:2, “spirit” is modified by the masculine noun “God” (ʾĕlōhîm), just as in the New Testament (cf. Acts 5:3—4). There are even times when “spirit” (rûach) behaves as a masculine noun, especially when it occurs as part of the phrase “Spirit of the LORD” (rûaḥ YHWH) (see 2 Kings 2:16; cf. 1 Kings 18:12, 22:24).7 There is no evidence that the spirit of God is feminine.

In encouraging people to learn more about God our “Mother,” the heretical cultic group “The World Mission Society Church of God” erroneously state:

When God created human beings, He said, “Let us.” This shows that God is more than one. God created males and females as a reflection of the male and female images of God: God the Father and God the Mother.

That is why the original Hebrew text refers to God as Elohim, which means Gods. Elohim—God the Father and God the Mother—have been working together for our salvation since the creation of the world, but according to the Bible, the last days is the time for God the Mother to be revealed.

This is a classic case of reading into the Bible something that is just not there. While the Hebrew plural noun ʾĕlōhîm can refer to gods (see Exodus 12:12; 20:3), it refers to the one true God of Israel when it commonly occurs with singular verbs, as found in Genesis 1:1 (“create, bārāʾ).8 The Bible clearly affirms that there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:6), whose being is shared eternally by three divine persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (see Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). So why use a plural noun to refer to one God? Even though Christians disagree as to the meaning of “let us”9 in Genesis 1:26, it is consistent with belief in plurality within God (Genesis 1:2; 3:22; 11:7; 18:1-3). However, the Bible nowhere states, “God the Mother.”

Further appeal to use feminine language to describe God comes from the words of Jesus in the New Testament. In Luke 15:8–10, Jesus uses a parable about a woman who searches for the lost coin. Some believe the woman represents God. Yet, the focus of the parables in Luke 15 is on rejoicing over the salvation of sinners (Luke 15:5, 6, 9, 10, 24), not on the nature of God’s being (i.e., female or not). Another example given for describing God in feminine terms comes from Jesus’ lament: “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing” (Matthew 23:37). Jesus’ use of a feminine metaphor to compare himself to a hen who gathers her brood (as God sheltered his people, see Exodus 19:4) in no way calls us to think of him as a female (or as a hen!). Jesus was unquestionably male (see below).

While there are a number of feminine images in the Bible used to describe God, they in no way encourage the use of the term “mother” to describe him nor the use of feminine pronouns when referring to him.

While there are a number of feminine images in the Bible used to describe God, they in no way encourage the use of the term “mother” to describe him nor the use of feminine pronouns when referring to him.

The Masculinity of God

The pronouns and verbs used in the Bible to describe God are always masculine, as are most of the nouns and images (Lord, King, Redeemer, Father, husband):

The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’ (Numbers 14:18)

Our Redeemer—the Lord of hosts is his name— is the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 47:4)

For your husband is your Maker, whose name is the Lord of armies; and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, who is called the God of all the earth. (Isaiah 54:5)

Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” (Matthew 6:9)

Jesus said…I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.” (John 20:17).

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named (Ephesians 3:14–15)

he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, (1 Timothy 6:15)

The most important name for God is the one he revealed to Moses so the people of Israel would know Moses had been sent by him:

God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I am has sent me to you.’” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The Lord (יהוה), the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations. (Exodus 3:14-15)

The covenant name יהוה (YHWH) comes from the participle form of the verb “to be,” and there is good reason to believe it means “he is” or “he who causes to be.”10 In the Old Testament, there are 6,828 occurrences of יהוה (YHWH), and they are always associated with masculine adjectives and masculine verbs. The name יהוה (YHWH) marks out God’s uniqueness as he is both transcendent and immanent (cf. John 1:1–3, 14). The prophet Isaiah also tells us that יהוה (YHWH) is not like the gods of the nations as he11 is pre-existent, uncreated, the Creator of all things, and the only God who can save (Isaiah 40:28, 42:5, 43:10–12).

Some may argue that it is true that God is presented as male but that this is only metaphorical language used to describe God’s character. Even though the modern scholarly consensus seems to suggest this latter view is correct, it is by no means a unanimous view. Pastor and Old Testament scholar John C. P. Smith gives several good reasons to think this is not the case: (1) God consistently and repeatedly represents himself as male making a deliberate assertion about his nature; (2) The presentation of God as male throughout the Bible is ubiquitous and supports the notion that his maleness is a reality and not a metaphor; and (3) the term Father is not simply one metaphor among others in the Bible: it is what God in actuality is for his worshippers. 12

A further reason to see God as male is his many physical appearances in the Bible. In the Old Testament, God appeared many times in male human form, known as “theophanies”13 or “Christophanies” (see Genesis 18:1–3, 22, 32:22–30; Joshua 5:13–15).14 This is further affirmed in the New Testament when the Son of God (Jesus) is presented as being male in both his pre- and post-resurrection body (Luke 2:7, 42, 3:23, 24:36, 51). Jesus was fully God and fully man, as the apostle Paul affirmed that “in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily” (Colossians 2:9). Jesus’ gender is not something that will change, as at a fixed day in the future, he is the man who will judge the world in righteousness (Acts 17:31, cf. 17:18). From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is consistent in teaching the maleness of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Nevertheless, it is argued by some that the maleness of Jesus was just culturally appropriate:

God knew that if Jesus had come to earth as a woman she wouldn’t have been so involved in religious life, or had opportunities to travel, or have had a voice that would be heard in the same way that a man’s voice would. For Jesus’ ministry to be the most effective, Jesus needed to be a man.15

The fact of Jesus’ maleness is not theologically unimportant.

If Jesus' ministry was only about being the “most effective,” then why after his resurrection did Jesus first reveal himself to Mary Magdalene (Luke 24:10; cf. Matthew 28:1), a woman from whom Jesus had cast seven demons (Luke 8:2)? A woman’s testimony, especially of a former demoniac, was not highly valued in first-century Jewish culture. This argument, however, misses the biblical reason why Jesus came as a man. The fact of Jesus’ maleness is not theologically unimportant.16 The reason Jesus came as a man was to stand as “the last Adam” (1 Corinthians 15:45) as the head over a new and redeemed people (cf. Romans 5:12–19). Just as the first Adam is head over a fallen humanity bringing death and condemnation (1 Corinthians 15:22; Romans 5:18), so Jesus as the “last Adam” brings justification from sin and resurrection life to a redeemed humanity (Romans 5:19; 1 Corinthians 15:22–23). It was a man who brought sin and death into the world, so it needed to be removed by a man.

The simple reason why we should not speak of God as female (i.e., “our Mother”) is that this is not the way God has chosen to reveal himself to his creation. God has chosen to reveal himself in predominately male terms and specifically as a male in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, the last Adam. And that is the way we should speak to God and about God to others.

How the LGBT movt is infiltrating churches

December 21, 2015

Where Christian churches, other religions stand on gay marriage

By David Masci and Michael Lipka

The Supreme Court ruling earlier this year legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide has continued to raise questions about how the decision will affect religious groups – especially those that remain opposed to allowing gay and lesbian couples to wed. The court’s ruling makes clear that clergy and religious organizations are not obliged to perform same-sex marriages, but some groups have expressed concerns about their tax-exempt status.

Many of the largest U.S. religious institutions have remained firmly against allowing same-sex marriage, including the Roman Catholic Church, the Orthodox Jewish movement and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as well as the Southern Baptist Convention and other evangelical Protestant denominations. The nation’s largest historically black church, the National Baptist Convention, and its biggest Pentecostal denomination, the Assemblies of God, also prohibit their clergy from marrying same-sex couples.
At the same time, in the past two decades, several other religious groups also have moved to allow same-sex couples to marry within their traditions. This includes the Reform and Conservative Jewish movements, the Unitarian Universalist Association and the United Church of Christ.

And the list is growing: Clergy from the Episcopal Church will be able to perform same-sex marriage ceremonies after the church’s General Convention recently approved a new definition of marriage. Another mainline Protestant denomination, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), voted to formally sanction same-sex marriage earlier this year.
Among the four largest mainline Protestant churches, the same-sex marriage debate has not been simple. The United Methodist Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) (not to be confused with the Presbyterian Church in America, which opposes same-sex marriage) and the Episcopal Church have wrestled with the issue for years, often as part of a larger debate on the role of gays and lesbians in the church.
The new definition of marriage for the Episcopal Church, a member of the Anglican Communion, drew “deep concern” from the archbishop of Canterbury, whose Church of England does not sanction same-sex marriage. And the debate within the Presbyterian Church has already led some congregations to break away and join other, more conservative Presbyterian denominations. Both denominations allow clergy to opt out of performing same-sex marriages, while the ELCA allows ministers and their congregations to determine their own policies.
The United Methodist Church does not allow same-sex blessings or marriages. But the United Methodists also have been intensely debating the issue, particularly in the past year or so, after a church court tried, defrocked and eventually reinstated the Rev. Frank Schaefer, a Methodist pastor who had performed a same-sex marriage ceremony for his gay son. Schaefer’s case has split the church, with some clergy flouting the rules and marrying same-sex couples and other, more conservative members threatening to leave if the church does not hold to its current rules prohibiting gay marriage.
Overall, a solid majority of white mainline Protestants (62%) now favor allowing gays and lesbians to wed, with just 33% opposed, according to a 2015 Pew Research Center survey. A similar share (63%) say there is “no conflict” between their religious beliefs and homosexuality.
