Yup. Protestants are just quitters who couldn't hack it at being real christians. They came up with their own rules to justify their sinful behavior.



Protestantism became more and more popular after the Bible was translated into English and could be read by the masses.

As soon as people could read and think for themselves, instead of having their masses in Latin, they saw the Light and broke free from that unholy yoke that is the Bishop of Rome. Some people still can't read or think for themselves. They call themselves "Roman Catholic".

There's an important difference between a church PROMOTING the Gay and Transgender agenda and a church NOT condoning such behavior but having to deal with the misconduct of some its members who choose to disobey the church and engage in the misconduct.

Of course, you knew that already.

Games have been played with translations to push certain beliefs onto communities.

Catholicism has its issues, but Protestantism opened a whole different can of worms

And even though we are over 500 years removed from the Protestant rebellion against the Church, Protestants STILL CANNOT MAKE UP their minds exactly what The Bible says about Baptism (and other important topics).

Catholics know what we think, because it's all reasoned out in the Catechism, which is available for everyone to read for free - all supported by Scripture.

We have been thinking for ourselves for a very long time. It is Martin Luther who cautions against Reason and thinking for yourself.

Here's what we think: Catholic Answers

Anyway, this thread is about what's going on in a METHODIST church, not Catholic.

Methodists believe in Infant Baptism!

There is going to be a break from the United Methodist church late 22/early 23.
I want to say it’s going to be the global Methodist church, but not sure. Started in E Europe (go figure).



Global will be the continuation of the traditional Methodist Church. United will be the progressive side. Not sure who did the arbitration for that...I know some " prestigious" firm/person was brought in. The traditional side though seems to have capitulated to much though. One of the hang ups is how to handle potential boy scout lawsuits for sexual impropriety - how much each group will have to contribute ... There will also be independent Methodist and other smaller affiliations

It is counterproductive to provoke the Protestants around here with insults. Catholics are out-numbered here. If we start trading insults, we'll be buried, so let's use Reason, Logic and Historical Facts.

The protestant movement wasn't exclusive to the English language. So that kind of throws your entire argument out the window.

Ironically, it is the Catholic church that has had a very long history investing in science.

Yeah, 50% of Methodists have essentially gone satanic.

This is what man-centered worship looks like. It abandons God's Word in favor of man's ideas and props up sin instead of the holiness of God.

Not a Methodist, but I’ve been following some of this. The Woodlands Methodist Church is recommending deaffiliation. It was the 3rd largest in the UMC.
I think it's a done deal. Vote in July or August, was like 96% voted to leave.

That looks to be an Episcopalian service, judging by the clergy's robes.

Doesn't really matter - both denominations are very woke now.

Geez, it's really hard not to have visions of the Apocolypse when you see stuff like this - added to what we already have. Digitial currency can and will soon be the one world currency and they will be able to say who can buy and sell. Wars and rumors of war. Saddle up those horses boys, the end times are a coming.

My brother in Christ, the Roman Catholic Church hid the pervasive abuse of children and protected the people that did it over generations and across the world. This is well documented. Are you speaking from experience when accusing the Methodists or defending the Roman Catholic Church's response?

Go ahead, cast the first stone.

In Georgia many churches have already disaffiliated including the largest UMC church in the state. Churches in north Florida are sueing to get out. The conservative portion of the UMC got out maneuvered by the wokes who controlled the purse strings of the church and also controlled the bishops.
