Matt,
I think at this point any victory is a victory, perhaps the timeing is not right...but none the less a victory!
Being a very active United Methodist, I totally understand where you are coming from with the view of the church. There are changes being made there as well. The United Methodist Church is trying to move forward and trying to change their stand on gay issues. There was a song written a few years back for our opening call to worship entitled "Open Hearts, Open Doors, Open Minds", it may take us a while, but we are working on it. Now I can't say that for everyone or every denomination, I think the Roman Catholic church may never get, but yet the Episcopalions are moving in a very positive direction.
We also have to remember who is in office in our Nations Capital right now, someone who is controlling the media, someone who is controlling gas and oil prices, someone who I personally feel wants to see this country in the worst shape possible, so blame can be passed to the next group in control.
I have repeatedly been told how the controling powers have paid the media to keep their slant on world issues to the front of our minds...not a good thing!
Positive thoughts, we are moving forward, small steps may lead to even larger steps...after all is that not how we all start out in life.
