This is an interesting article about the United Methodists.  I have family members on both sides of this break-up.  It has been interesting to listen to them try to find ways of justification of their actions.   Sadly, all they have to do is be truthful in their position on key points and it would be done, but all the posturing and scripture quoting doesn't resolve a thing.  It just covers up the simple truth that one group has grown apart from the other.  One has chosen a more liberal inclusive interpretation of the Bible and the other chooses a more conservative less open or narrow focus interpretation of the Bible.   It will be interesting to follow how each grows over the next few years for sure.
