More from the RSN article:
Wednesday’s synod actions will also have profound consequences for its flagship university, Calvin. In December, one-third of Calvin faculty signed a letter expressing concerns about the Human Sexuality Report, and some are now expected to leave. Faculty at Calvin University must sign a document saying their beliefs align with the historical creeds and confessions of the Christian Reformed Church.
It was not clear what the status of the document might be moving forward.
“Many people are polishing their CVs, starting to look at what else is out there and preparing themselves to leave,” said Kristin Kobes Du Mez, a professor of history at Calvin University and one of its star faculty.

From Cowboy Christianity: A Short Review of Du Mez’s Jesus and John Wayne
Kristin Du Mez’s Jesus and John Wayne has struck a chord with both Christians and non-Christians. It was featured on NPR’s Morning Edition and received social media recommendations from Beth Moore, Jemar Tisby, Karen Swallow Prior, and Duke Kwon. As a historian, Du Mez charts the rise of “militant white masculinity” (p. 4) among evangelicals in the 20th and early 21st centuries. Her conclusion is that “evangelical support for Trump [was] the culmination of evangelicals’ embrace of militant masculinity, an ideology that enshrines patriarchal authority and condones the callous display of power, at home and abroad” (p. 3). Because this review will be net negative, I’d like to begin with the positive aspects of the book, those which make it so compelling to so many people, including a large swath of conservative evangelicals.

Yes this is sexual abuse of kids and sexual suggesting them.
It is a low-key form of sexually grooming a child how you want them to be - it is a subtle hidden form of pedophilia and quite disgusting.

Just feels like our culture on it's last leg. Kids are being trannied and gayed in schools. Half the fucking America, at least half, is all into gaying the kids in the name of inclusivity. They are nuts, they are hurting the kids. And now even some churches starting to accept gay. If I remember history, that's the sign of the end.

I think the end goal is to mainstream pedophilia.

Pedophilia is how gay men reproduce gayness in the next generation. So that would explain part of it.
But also, now that it's abundantly clear that the oligarchy is chock full of pedophiles (thanks Epstein!) maybe they also want to normalize it to make what they have done not seem like the heinous crime it really is.

My parents left their church of nine years because the church secretary's son was allowed to cross-dress and work in the children's church. They did meet with leadership to express their concern before leaving.
I encouraged them to inform any parents who weren't yet aware, so they wouldn't be blind-sided, and consider reporting this to the denominational leadership. Not to cause trouble, but to try and help the church come back into alignment with God.
Conversely, at the church we recently started attending, the pastor used part of his sermon last Sunday to say men and women cannot change their sex, and two males marrying is not natural. There's stuff I don't agree with at this church, but felt good to hear them affirm they will not be joining in the slide to perversion.

United Methodist Church slashes budget to smallest in 40 years after mass exodus from denomination ...
Maybe this inevitable divine judgment for abusing the Word of God will serve as a warning for other churches that are scrambling to inject the woke gospel of Satan into their teachings.
Pride goeth before the fall.
