The only shock here is that this didn't happen sooner (although retards performing "miracles" at the site of Saint George of Fentanyl's death came close). It's been clear for a long time that leftists want to pray to troons and force others to as well, although their hatred of (normal) religion kept them from being explicit about it. I guess they realized they need pray to their degenerate deity to be true followers of the Church of Woke.
I see Duke Divinity is following the "right side of history." Not a huge surprise.
The progressive western wing of the United Methodist Church unofficially split off a couple of years ago, but is effectively still under the UMC umbrella. Wiki entry on "Liberation Methodist Connexion":
At the 2019 special session of the United Methodist Church General Conference, delegates voted 438-384 in favor of a Traditional Plan that would reaffirm the language in the UMC's Book of Discipline banning the ordination of LGBT clergy members and preventing clergy from performing same-sex marriages. Several progressives within the UMC began proposing a new denomination in response to this decision. Members of this progressive coalition referred to themselves as the "Liberationists" and discussed the possibility of a new denomination in the months following the General Conference.
In January 2020, the UMC proposed the "Protocol of Grace and Separation" that would allow churches with traditional views towards LGBT issues to form a new Methodist denomination and provide the "post-separation" UMC to rescind the Traditional Plan. A vote on the Protocol, set for the May 2020 General Conference, was postponed until 2022.
Members of the "Liberationist" coalition opted to advance their plan to form a new denomination rather than wait for the UMC to settle its stance on LGBT issues. The Liberation Methodist Connexion was formally announced on November 29, 2020. In December 2021, the organization published a press release detailing initial struggles within the LMX and outlining the denomination's statement of values and mission statement.
Who'd a thunk the college professors would encourage the pro-alphabet soup theology?
So, further information was learned. A group of conservative (say, traditional) United Methodists is also planning to split off to become a new "Global Methodist Church" as of May 1st. https://archive.ph/tXxKQ
The Global Methodist Church will launch on May 1, 2022.
United Methodist Church leaders have failed to make timely arrangements for holding a General Conference in 2022, and so have postponed it for a third time. Therefore, the Protocol of Reconciliation and Grace through Separation, a plan that would have resulted in an amicable and orderly separation will not be adopted until at least 2024. The Transitional Leadership Council determined it must launch the Global Methodist Church this year so local churches, annual conferences, and central conferences wanting to join it could do so as soon as possible.
For approximately 12 to 18 months, the Global Methodist Church will be a church in transition as it prepares for its convening General Conference. During the transitional period, the Global Methodist Church will operate under the Transitional Book of Doctrines and Discipline.
Is it finally happening? I know they had been waiting for a conference, but the Bishops (mostly progressives) delayed it because of "the coof" for the third year in a row.

IIRC it was primarily the African countries that blocked accepting the letter people.
Thank God for North Katanga.
It is really sad to see this. That’s why it’s so important to find a good church if you are looking for one
Which bowdlerization of the Bible will they use, The Inclusive Bible or Queen James?
They should just call them the Broad Road Version.
The reviews for those books have given me some hope.
Literal devil worship.
They are literally praying to Satan.
They should never have been allowed into the church.
