Subject: Now and Then

I had a discussion with some Mormon missionaries yesterday. They were not very familiar with the RLDS Church, or its offspring, the Community of Christ. They were interested when I told them that the CofC had joined the NCC, and that it had recently legitimatized its decades-long practice of ordaining homosexuals, and/or performing covenant ceremonies for same sex couples.

I didn't mention the CofC's practice of blessing opposite-sex relationships in which the two partners want to cohabit, but not marry. I thought that might be a little too much for them at one sitting.

The nice thing about it all is that if they should contact the church offices to verify what I told them, the CofC administrators don't have to lie about it any more.
