More discussion…  But the interesting thing is that they plan to look at human sexuality with the help of Scripture.  When they compare that with they the “contemporary” view of human sexuality, I wonder if what they will find is not only the vast divergence between those two sources but also something much more important:  The need to evangelize and disciple adherents into a Biblical worldview?  Doing that effectively could change a lot of things.

Perhaps - but modernists are experts at twisting Scripture into saying what they want it to say.

Next on the agenda, a public referendum on each of the Ten Commandments.
