Mennonites divide over LGBT issues.

According to PJ Media, the Lancaster Mennonite Conference of 12,000 members left the main organization to express their opposition to same-sex m@rriage and LGBT hiring practices by the main group, Mennonite Church USA.

Apparently, Mennonites numbered 130,000 in the 1990s but now number about 75,000. With 12,000 leaving, the number of Mennonite Church USA is now half what it used to be.

I know many Menonites in Ga. Just forming my opinion on my knowledge if them, I am shocked any Mennonites in any way tolerate, much less endorse homosexuality.

I've typed out about 5 responses, and deleted them all.

As a former Mennonite, I can't even articulate my thoughts on this. Maybe I'll try again, later.
