A mainline Protestant denomination recently announced that it will be adding a "nonbinary/genderqueer" category to its annual report regarding church demographics. The Office of General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA), which is the largest Presbyterian denomination in the U.S., said Tuesday that it is making a series of changes regarding how it records the number of congregations and membership statistics in the denomination, according to a press release.

Gee, what is that giant "flushing" sound I just heard coming from the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA)?!?!?!?
I guess they keep a few bibles around in case they run out of toilet paper, but they clearly do not read them or preach out of them!!!

The only justification to create such a category is to out the perverts who should be cast out of the church.

I was baptized in the Presbyterian Church but quit in 1968 when they merged with PCUSA. PCUSA has gone full Marxist now. The northern Presbyterian churches were suffering declining attendance and going broke. They just wanted the money from the still viable southern Presbyterian Churches. They now push socialism and obsessive woke politics. Sad, really. I’ll never go back.

We. Are to rebuke abomination, not embrace it.
This is precisely why I left the PCUSA and joined a Bible-based evangelical church years ago.

It’s been a while since the Presbyterian Church had anything to do with Christianity.

Do the same rules apply as for heterosexual members? No sex before marriage?

This is NOT a Christian thing. The Bible clearly says that homosexuality is evil and perverse, clearly sin.

I can't remember if these PCUSA guys are the anti-Christ or just the false prophet. I'll have to check the outline St. John revealed again.

Local Presbyterian church has lost 70% of its membership in the past 10 years. Beautiful building, now shabby! It won't be long before it is sold or demolished because the cupcakes (if you get my meaning) in the council are sexual activist lefties and happy with the way things are going.

Once a Protestant; the habit sets in. From reinventing Christianity WITHOUT AUTHORITY to now accepting and preaching the defiance of Science and the natural biological and phsyiological order. Funny how all the traditional "liberal Portestant sects" with their Faustian agreement with the Devil and the world for the sake of "being loved by the world" are slowly but surely splitting into all sorts of fragaments and disappearing up their own fundamental orifices. Other Protestant sects still attracting large congregations by sticking to and preaching their "reformed" biblical concepts are on the other hand reviled and condemned as troglodytic and bigotted FUNDAMENTALISTS, and no better than the murderous Muslims.

Never met Lucianne, but G-d bless her and comfort her family. She w/b missed.
Our church left PCUSA about 10 years ago - always about the ransom money. We paid about $3 million to leave with our campus - that was in a trust created in 1950s for this very event. After fighting the liberals for about 20 years, we moved on and created ECO - Evangelical Covenant Order - with many other large Presby churches. Half of our congregation left about 40 years ago when we merged and created PCUSA - the 2 Presbyterian orders had been separated since the Civil War. Like most things that old, the tolerant and progressive ones were the folks that started to admit 'there were different paths to heaven'. When you hear THAT, you know you are in the wrong place.....

They should add the term, "former Presbyterian" as well, because there will be a rather large exodus from the already crumbling edifice that was once the Presbyterian Church, USA.

The PCUSA has always been far to the Left of the PCA. I belong to a PCA Church that is decidedly conservative and would split rather than accept these deviancies. Talk about cutting their own throats. They may attract more deviants but they cannot any longer call themselves Christians. God is not ambiguous about sexual deviancy.
But hey, they can still get their tax breaks, right?

Nothing "mainline" about this. Classic example of how the Presbyterians left me years ago.

Both the Presbyterians and the Methodists have had splits over liberal theology.
I believe Southern Baptists are the most biblically based denomination, but they too have woke rot at the top.
Fortunately, these "leaders" have no control over any existing church. But when you control the seminaries, you control the future. So I expect to see a split down the road.

are they that hard up for participants in their church that catering to a semi-class of citizens is necessary? what has "religion" come to that the belief in God takes a back seat to existing and substandard "religious" practices featuring the decaying social fabric of our society, "religion" is not earth based but Heaven based, a place we all hope to reach upon taking our last breath
- once we lose the standards that a "religion" proposes and espouses as the right thing to do, we've lost our society and the end of civilization is near
