The Church of Scotland has voted to allow a homosexual to minister in Aberdeen. A grave decision and a dark day in Scottish history as Derek Thomas has so aptly put it. It certainly looks like the the COS may be headed for schism. Read more here.
It is sad but the evangelicals in the CoS have been given quite a bit of air time on the news. Secondly it is unlikely to cause a schism, one evangelical minister coming out of the assembly said, "we are not moving its out church we hold to the faith, this will not cause a split, we are already split". As an independent I am not sure how they can stay but I think they will. Shalom Stephen
