HT to the Religion News Service Blog:

After all the fights, all the ink that's been spilled, all the churches that have been torn in two, the fight over homosexuality in the Presbyterian Church (USA) is more or less over after the church ratified a move to rescind a de facto ban on gay clergy.

[RNS'] own Dan Burke will have more on this later today. A Presby pastor who was tried and acquitted for marrying two lesbians calls it the "moral awakening of mainstream Christianity."

NCR will post Burke's piece from Religion News Service as soon as it is available.
