Arrr, me hearties! Listen up, ye scurvy dogs! The United Methodist Church be in a right mess, losin' over a million members due to some new rules about premarital shenanigans and homosexuality. Aye, ye heard me right!The church in the Ivory Coast be sayin' "Arrr, we've had enough!" and decided to break away from the rest o' the denomination. They be not likin' the fact that the ban on LGBTQ clergy be lifted, allowin' them to be ordained and appointed as ministers.
During the General Conference in Charlotte, the delegates be votin' 692-51 in favor o' liftin' the ban. That be a lot o' votes, mateys!
So there ye have it, me hearties. The United Methodist Church be in a right pickle, with members droppin' like flies over these new rules. Will they be able to sail through this storm, or will they end up walkin' the plank? Only time will tell, me buckos!
