SCOTTSDALE, Arizona — The Western district of the Methodist church has elected an openly gay bishop despite the denomination's ban on same-sex relationships.

The Rev. Karen Oliveto was elected late Friday night at a meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona, of the church's Western Jurisdiction.

Oliveto is pastor of Glide Memorial United Methodist Church in San Francisco.

She is the first openly gay bishop in the 12.7 million-member denomination.

Pope Francis says gays, others marginalized deserve apology
The United Methodist Church is deeply divided over LGBT rights.

The Rev. Karen Oliveto, center, was elected late Friday night at a meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona, of the church's Western Jurisdiction.
Church law says same-gender relationships are "incompatible with Christian teaching."

But several regional districts are openly defying the prohibition by appointing gay clergy and allowing same-sex weddings in churches. Some instances have led to trials under the church legal system.

Oliveto's election could draw complaints that will prompt a review under church law.

Bisexuality and homosexuality have always existed. the only problem is CULTURAL MARXIST ENFORCEMENT.

Also most christians do not understand the bible... eve being made out of adam' rib (meaning that male and female components are just in everything), the virgin aspect of mary, female giving birth to a MALE without intercourse with a MALE but the Mind which is too masculine (thoughts are sexed). Etc.. I regard religious fundamentalism as the biggest scourge ever.

Indeed why would the NWO hate you to know about the Principle Of Gender (immutable Natural Law) ? Because if you knew, sexuality would cease to be under its control. 2000 years of much or the same...


But sure the talking of immutable Laws of Nature is new age... LOL... meanwhile the bible's allegories stipulate them.
