		<description>I'm sorry I don't read the part about BWF saying that the UCC is not a Christian denomination. BWF is PART of the UCC.  If you read their Statement of Faith, (http://www.biblicalwitness.org/BWFStatement_of_Faith.htm) they don't say anything about gay marriage in their statement.  They don't have to, gay marriage isn't natural, it is wrong, it was never meant to be.&lt;br/&gt;I hate to break this to you but 80% of the UCC Synod amounts to 100% of nothing,  Don’t believe me check out their constitution, (http://www.ucc.org/aboutus/constitution.htm)  As for me and my house we will follow Christ, I pray you find your way brother.&lt;br/&gt;Michael</description>

		<description>As a new Christian, about three years ago, I chose the UCC to be my church home. Sadly, I have watched it become more a political &lt;br/&gt;social organization than a church.&lt;br/&gt;Left wing politics seem to be more important than our Lord and Savior,&lt;br/&gt;Jesus Christ.&lt;br/&gt;Being tolerant does not mean one needs to endorse gay marriage.They have gone too far.</description>

		<description>It's so sad that some people are not able to recognize Jesus' teachings and intent.  The UCC is certainly leading the way in Jesus' work and hopefully will be able to turn other denominations back towards Jesus' inclusive message.  We can only pray.</description>

		<description>The UCC has made a terrible error in indorsing gay marriage. The UCC has lost it way and is not a church that is led by the Holy Spirit. This decision will have repercussions many times over in the church.</description>

		<description>It would seem to me that the actions of synod are but the last gasp of a dying denomination that has lost it's moral compass.</description>

		<description>It's my understanding that General Synod also passed BWF-supported resolutions affirming Jesus Christ as Lord and retaining the traditional crown/cross/globe logo and "that they may all be one" motto.  It seems typical that the more moderate and liberal Synod delegates were willing to pass this resolution to keep the BWF types in the family, while the BWF types take their ball and stomp off because of the marriage resolution.</description>
