Mennonite Church USA Adopts BDS with a 98% Vote to boycott Israel


Culminating a three-year process, delegates at the Mennonite Church USA assembly in Orlando on Thursday adopted a resolution titled “Seeking Peace in Israel and Palestine,” with approximately 98 percent voting in favor. The resolution calls on members to “avoid purchase of products associated with the occupation or produced in settlements in occupied territories.” It also establishes a process for the church to review its investments “for the purpose of withdrawing investments from companies that are profiting from the occupation.”

Fat:
I can believe all this stuff that is happening in the Catholic Church, but to see the Mennonites  stray so far from the Bible it leads me to believe that the end of the church age is very close.

Hal:
I was going through all these threads under Christian news, and I am having a hard time finding anything that's positive is anything at all happening that's good in the church today?
