What's the big deal?<br /><br />However, once you start allowing men/women to change the rules in the Church, it becomes a very slippery slope:<br /><br />1. Women pastors<br />2. Gay pastors in life-long, monogamous relationships<br />3. Transgender pastors in life-long, monogamous relationships.<br />4. Straight/gay/transgender pastors with open relationships.<br />5. Straight/gay/transgender pastors who partner swap. <br />6. Straight/gay/transgender pastors who have group sex with their parishioners. As long as everyone is consensual and follow the Golden Rule...why not? Who is it hurting?<br /><br />If the Church stops following the 2,000 year old rules established by the Apostles and follows society's current moral and social standards, the above "morality" in the Church is NOT far-fetched.<br /><br />It is only a matter of time.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02519721717265344702noreply@blogger.com
