I am a United Methodist.

This is not the first time that: The United Methodist Church has taken a stance that is in opposition to that of it's members.

A number of years, decades I think, ago. The Ruling Council basically stated that a woman should allow herself, as well as her children be raped and/or murdered, rather than resist with deadly force.

I disagreed with that policy, as I disagree with the current position of the church's ruling council. That said, I am a United Methodist for it's theological stand,and not it's social stance.

That said, please read: Luke 22:36
