And the church will blossom as the hordes of Scots who were shunning the church for the sole reason that there were no homosexual clergy will now flock to fill the place to overflowing. Rainbows of God’s blessing and abundance will pour out on the Kirk as he smiles benignly down on the hitherto shy clerical sodomites.
Or everything will fall apart, just as it has done in North America.
From here:
Scotland’s largest protestant church has swept away centuries of tradition and voted to allow gay men and lesbians to become ministers, opening up the prospect of the church allowing civil partnerships for same-sex couples.
The Church of Scotland imposed a temporary moratorium in 2009 on admitting gay and lesbian ministers after Scott Rennie became the first openly gay clergyman in a homosexual partnership to be officially appointed as a minister in the church.
And the church will blossom as the hordes of Scots who were shunning the church for the sole reason that there were no homosexual clergy will now flock to fill the place to overflowing.
Well, it could happen…somewhere…sometime…sure…
Thanks for passing this bit along. Hmm…ECLA, PCUSA, Church of Scotland, all since January 1.
Who’s gonna sit in the pews now, put their checks in the offering plate, teach the Sunday School classes, organize the summer camps…
Normal ‘church’ families usually don’t stay and fight. They just want to raise the kids in the faith. They simply slip quietly, unnoticed almost, out the back door. And they never come back.
