Reply #100: Most Methodists In my churches could be called liberal. -- the rest of the quote:

[BrightKnight]

"All persons, regardless of age, gender, marital status, or sexual orientation, are entitled to have their human and civil rights ensured and to be protected against violence..."

..."We affirm that all persons are individuals of sacred worth, created in the image of God. All persons need the ministry of the Church in their struggles for human fulfillment, as well as the spiritual and emotional care of a fellowship that enables reconciling relationships with God, with others, and with self.

The United Methodist Church does not condone the practice of homosexuality and consider this practice incompatible with Christian teaching. We affirm that God’s grace is available to all. We will seek to live together in Christian community, welcoming, forgiving, and loving one another, as Christ has loved and accepted us. We implore families and churches not to reject or condemn lesbian and gay members and friends. We commit ourselves to be in ministry for and with all persons...."

I do not agree with the Homosexuality is incompatible part and I have never heard a sermon about it. I am sure that it has happened. Methodists tend to be tolerant generally get that Christianity is NOT about hate.

Christianity is a broad road and you will find many bumper stickers in the church parking lot.
