Title: United Church upholds decision to review fitness of atheist minister
Post by: macuser on April 01, 2016, 04:52:21 pm

TORONTO -- The United Church has decided to go ahead with an unprecedented review that could lead to the defrocking of an ordained minister who believes in neither God nor Bible.
Vosper, 57, who was ordained in 1993 and joined her West Hill congregation in 1997, has for years made no bones about her beliefs, which include rejecting the notion of an interventionist, supernatural being on which much church doctrine is based.
"I don't believe in...the god called God," Vosper said last year. "Using the word gets in the way of sharing what I want to share."
