It is all the fashion these days to add letters to the ubiquitous LGBT initialism, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and add one of my own: LGBTC. The “C” stands for “closing”.
London’s MCC Community church is a denomination that affirms and celebrates all things LGBT. It declares itself to be welcoming, inclusive, diverse and tolerant, all qualities that seem to drive people away rather than attract them. A church that makes no demands of its members other than that they remain as they are clearly isn’t peddling anything worth having. As a result, there aren’t enough people to pay the pastor:
It is with deep regret that we announce that this evening January 6, 2019 will be Reverend Bruce Lee’s final service as our Pastor of MCC London. The Board, in collaboration with Bruce, have come to the difficult decision that this congregation cannot financially maintain the cost associated with a full-time Pastor.
