Confessing Evangelical

David Mills reports on a proposed resolution from the (PCUSA) Presbytery of Lackawanna, which calls on Presbyterians "to make their private decisions about procreation in the light of the compelling need to reduce the human impact upon the planet". With depressing phrases such as "the CreatorRedeemer" (sic), and disgusting phrases such as "remaining birthfree" (just think for a moment why they say that, rather than "childless"), this proposal needs no further comment here. And to be fair, it is highly unlikely to be passed at PCUSA's General Convention.

But I did like the following dry comment from David Mills:

...far be it for a Catholic to make any comments on a call for fewer Presbyterians. I’d like to keep my Presbyterian friends, but I can see that one could make a good argument for reducing the number of Presbyterians in Lackawanna.

Quite.
