The outcome is not alarming. What i find alarming it the thought of having “Church changed it doctrine”as an option.

Peace!!!

Its been known to happen, example given, some of our Protestant friends have moved homosexuality from the “Sin” to the “OK” category.

I would switch denominations only if I permanently moved somewhere I couldn’t attend ”my own” faith.
Having said that, if my church betrayed it’s heritage in order to cosy up to bigots, I would storm out without bothering to curse the hypocrits on leaving.
