    Yeah you'll want to avoid the "CofC" generally as much as possible, bad news for any LGBT or anything else really. There's some real fuckers out there who set up CofC churches and put United in or around the title for no real reason, probably unaware of the UCofC/UCOC. It can be hard to tell at first too because a lot of CofC pastors won't lay all their cards on the table like baptists do in their sermons, so you can go for months without knowing they want to burn gay people

      I hate that about some religious groups. Be upfront on where you stand on social issues. Put it on your website and in your pamphlets. If you have no shame in your love of God, and God guides you in all things, then own up to your bullshit so people don’t waste their time. Stop hiding behind, “God loves everyone,” when what you really want to say is, “You will never be married in this church.” I’m atheist but I used to be a believer. If they won’t tell you upfront that they will support who you marry (and will marry you in their church), or adopting children, or how you express your understanding yourself, keep walking.

      Oh I was thinking of the Disciples of Christ, not whatever you have been mentioning. Just relooked it up
