Defying the constitution and the court
The Layman October 2005 Volume 38, Number 4, many of the same presbyteries that openly violate G-6.0106b and the GAPJC’s ruling in Londonderry – acting as if they both erred and are irrelevant – are once again seeking to repeal G-6.0106b and the General Assembly’s Authoritative Interpretation that undergirds it.
But if the constitution and Londonderry are both wrong and pose no hindrance to their ordination of ministers who are practicing homosexuals, why bother to fight another angry legislative battle to remove the obstacles?
Likewise, the task force has apparently concluded that both the constitution and Londonderry are no impediment to candidates for church office who violate Biblical standards of sexuality.
