I'm just saying, don't be surprised when you find out they've been doing things behind your back.

Lives in sin, (gay marriage) Then how do gays and lesbians become ordained ministers?
I can be 'ordained' in 10 minutes online.
News flash for you closed minded folks around here.
Some people are gay.... it's been that way for centuries.
Isn't is amazing at how organized they are though to sway so much power within our government? A small rudder can turn a giant ship. The LGBTQ community is very tight nit. They can have a protest together in hours if not minutes and their ability to use the media to their benefit is one of the best.
It's the Methodists

My definition of ordination is a consecration by means of studying and sacrifice by a legitimate church not some website you pay $10 to.
Becoming an ordained minister in that way just cheapens the practice and the religion ordaining the person. Not to mention the illegitimacy of the consecrated acts performed by the "ordained minister". Just another way they can tear down our belief systems.
Currently, "self-avowed, practicing" gay, lesbian and bisexual persons cannot be ordained in The United Methodist Church. According to the Book of Discipline: "The practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christian teaching. Therefore self-avowed practicing homosexuals are not to be certified as candidates, ordained as ministers, or appointed to serve in The United Methodist Church." Although some regions still raise obstacles, gay, lesbian and bisexual persons who take a vow of abstinence are eligible for ordination according to church law. In 2014, both the New England and California-Pacific conferences issued statements that they would not discriminate against LGBTQ people seeking ordination—an action that goes directly against church law.
Anyone can be ordained if they choose to do so - maybe not in YOUR CHURCH... but that's not the measure for everyone.
Years ago when we lived in Skiatook my kids were both small my daughter may have been in first grade and son in pre-k. My wife would take them to story time at the library each week. One day they gave out some free books. My wife brought them home and showed it to me. They were cute picture books showing families and daily life. It was very subtle but the closer you looked you could see they were promoting LGBT lifestyle within the book. After doing some research on the author she said very plainly. The way you make change is to indoctrinate the youth. This is where change can happen easily as they haven't yet formed beliefs or opinions. I think she is very correct. So to answer the OPs question. Yes they are using this to promote their agenda.
They're not Gay their brain damaged..
