Rev. Gretta Vosper - professed atheist leading Canadian UCC church

The NYT had an article on page A6 about the Rev. Gretta Vosper a professed atheist leading a Canadian United Church of Canada congregation.

And you were all insistent that atheism isn't a religion.

But Seriously, she has been getting a lot of flack and support and I thought the group here would be interested in the discussion.

I chimed in and told both sides they should count their blessings that she isn't a Catholic pedophile capable only of believing in a holy penis that allows them to rape children and the mentally disabled with impunity.

An honest member of the clergy...something I never thought I'd see in my lifetime. And the United Church is too hypocritical to do anything about it. According to her lawyer, "Both parties took a long look at the cost-benefit at running a heresy trial and whether it was good for anyone".

I would not attend and I

I would not attend and I would defy any member to cite a list of agreed upon beliefs necessary to establish a "church."

a building used for public Christian worship.
"they came to church with me"
synonyms: house of God, the Lord's house, house of prayer; kirk
"a village church"

The unimaginative idiots that came up with the name should be ridiculed until they change it.
