United Methodist Rift with the Gideons
“To be a member of the Gideons, one must be an adult man and conform to a set of spiritual beliefs that are entirely uncontroversial for most Biblical Christians. Among these requisites is the commitment to ‘the Biblical standard of marriage being between one biological man and one biological woman.’” - Juicy Ecumenism

If they push the Gideons out on the basis of the definition of marriage, what they're doing is yet another instance of their war with their evangelical wing, which in my view is even now at least a third of their churches. My bet is that this will push a fair number of those out and accelerate their decline.
