(Worthy News) – A mainline Protestant denomination recently announced that it will be adding a “nonbinary/genderqueer” category to its annual report regarding church demographics.
The Office of General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA), which is the largest Presbyterian denomination in the U.S., said Tuesday that it is making a series of changes regarding how it records the number of congregations and membership statistics in the denomination, according to a press release.
In addition to traditional men and women categories, members of PCUSA presbyteries who identify as nonbinary or genderqueer will also be able to record their identity for official church statistics starting next year. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
