The United Methodist Church is a liberal, Mainline Protestant denomination that is Anglican in its theology and doctrine. Rev John Wesley was the founder of this church but actually remained a high church Anglican priest till his death. All he wanted to do was to open up the Church of England to the poor and oppressed and to be more accountable to the average Englishman. Today, the Methodists celebrate the 2 sacraments of the church, Holy Communion and Baptism. There is great diversity when it comes to style of worship. You have "low" and "high" churches and many in between. The UMC believes in the Apostolic Succession, like the Roman Catholics and Episcopalians. They closely observe the Christian year like other mainstream Protestants and the Anglican Church. The Methodist Church is different than the fundamentalists and charasmatic churches in that they do not believe in the literal interpretation of the Bible. The chuches urges its members to use reason, tradition, and church teachings to interpret the scriptures. The church shares with the Episcopal, Lutheran, and Presbyterians, in being a liturgical church. The United Methodist have "the Methodist Book of Worship", written by John Wesley. He loved the Book of Common Prayer and incorporated most of that into the Methodist Book of Worship. He also stressed that the new Church celebrate the Eucharist every week. The United Methodist Church also has a long history of being social progressive and taking the lead in the great issues of the day. They were very progressive when it came to child labor laws, civil rights for blacks, Hispanics and Asians. They were in the fore front when it came to union rights and the rights for women, including reproductive rights. The United Methodist Church in 1965 founded the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Rights. They have always been against capital punishment and for gun control. When in comes to war and peace issues, the UMC has always been vocal in its opposition to war and strong defenders of peace and justice issues! The church is having to confront, like other mainline denominations, the issue of gay rights and the rights to marry and for pastors to be able to marry if they are gay. There is a growing sense among many Methodists that the church is going to have to be more inclusive and accepting of gays. One of the great ecumenical achievements in the last 5 years is the decision by both the Evangelical Lutherans and the Episcopal Church, to be in full communion with the United Methodist Church. It will now be possible for all 3 traditions to allow pastors from any of the 3 to celebrate Holy Communion and to preach in each others's pulpits. In the UK, the Methodist Church is close to merging with the Church of England-maybe this year!

I have attended Baptist church many years. In the last year I have been attending the First Church of the Nazarene. I trusted Christ as my savior many years ago.

Catholics do not believe in birth control. Most of them are against abortion as well. I am baptist and i am also against abortion, but it just depends on the person.

The Catholic Church was founded by Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in the first century to bring God to the people and the people to God. The Protestant "churches" were founded by individuals sixteenth centuries after Christ according to their own personal beliefs.

.

Catholics believe that God the Son became incarnate in a human body through the Holy Spirit and the Blessed Virgin Mary to save mankind from their sins. He established His Church and appointed Apostles (Bishops) and Peter (Pope) to guide that Church on earth and He guaranteed to be with It until the end of time. Catholics believe that you only have one choice in life: to love and serve the Lord, or to reject Him and be separated from Him forever in Hell. Every other choice you have in life comes down to that, is this following Jesus or rejecting Him.

.

Protestants reject Christ because they reject His Body: the Church. They believe that they are their own little Pope and that they can decide how to follow Jesus themselves. Thus they fragment into many "denominations" as they decide how they want to follow God, ignoring what He, Himself has said, and interpreting for themselves what is right or wrong. Thus they believe that they have more choices than following God or not, they believe that they have the choice to decide HOW they are going to follow God. Baptists and Methodists are just two of the more than 40,000 different denominations that protestants have fragmented into.

Two were active members of the Methodist Church. Three others attended Methodist Services with some frequency but did not join. One other professed to be a Methodist but attended his wife's Presbyterian Church.
