Revd Sylvester Deigh, who proposed the Notice of Motion, said; “We must be clear that racism is a denial of the gospel. An openness to all people, regardless of nationality, is at the heart of Methodist identity.”
The principle of open-ness cannot be at the heart of identity, because open-ness unavoidably replaces the characteristics which supplied identity in the first place with random characteristics from outside, and because it’s a principle goes on doing this eternally. Methodists would be suicidal to impose this nihilistic anti-morality on themselves, the attempt to impose it on ethnic groups - which ultimately this amounts to - is genocidal.
There is a picture of the Revd. Deigh at Sarah’s.
