I signed the marriage license at my
daughter’s same sex wedding in August, 2014. This is a chargeable offense in the Book
of Discipline of the United Methodist Church. We’re at the stage in the
Supervisory Response process where we are pondering the question: What is the appropriate
penalty for disobeying the United Methodist church law?
a. Defrocking – taking away my
ministerial credentials
b. One month’s suspension without pay
and specific projects related to fostering conversation about this topic in our
Conference
c. Two week’s suspension without pay and
specific projects related to fostering conversation about this topic in our
Conference
d. One week suspension without pay and
specific projects related to fostering conversation about this topic in our
Conference
e. One day suspension without pay and
specific projects related to fostering conversation about this topic in our
Conference
f. No Suspension and specific projects
related to fostering conversation about this topic in our Conference
g. No penalty and no consequences at
all
