Presbyterian churches around Charlotte now face the same philosophical debates over Biblical authority and homosexuality that have cleaved other religions.
To date, nine area congregations have either left the Presbyterian Church (USA) or have announced wishes to do so over what they believe to be the liberal drift of the church.
The latest: Huntersville Presbyterian, which voted Sunday to dissolve its affiliation with the Presbytery of Charlotte.
This is big Presbyterian country as I found out upon moving here many years ago.
A pretty well balanced article that takes in both sides.

That is one way to move toward clarity and simplicity, let em go and it all becomes so simple, the movement can push on to its ultimate end.
