Constitutional Amendments, UMC

Today the Oklahoma Conference published the results of the vote on the proposed amendments to the United Methodist denomination. The results can be viewed by clicking here.

It looks like the two issues which generated the most controversy failed to receive the number of votes needed in order to change the constitution.

Interestingly, the amendment which received the most overwhelmingly negative vote was the amendment relating to the committee on investigation. I think this was solely due to Grayson Lucky’s very convincing speech against the amendment, where he argued that the amendment would introduce fundamental inconsistencies into the Book of Discipline.
