The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is tearing itself apart — and the trigger is about as basic as it gets. A proposal that clergy be required to be in monogamous relationships has ignited a furious denominational revolt, with progressive committees and pro-polyamory advocacy groups inside the church fighting the rule tooth and nail. The "More Light Presbyterians" hosted a "faithful polyamory 101" training last month while actively lobbying against the standard. Three separate advisory committees condemned the proposal, calling it an instrument of "shame, silence, and coercion" against "marginalized persons."

Sean Reynolds was raised Presbyterian in Snohomish County, and he genuinely cannot figure out what happened to the church he grew up in. The activists pushing back aren't fringe outsiders — they're official denominational bodies using the language of equity and inclusion to argue that asking clergy to stick to one partner is itself a form of discrimination. The Adam and Eve argument? Somehow that's now a controversial position inside a Christian institution.

This is what progressive capture of mainline institutions actually looks like at the end stage: not a slow drift on social justice talking points, but an outright war over whether basic monogamy belongs in the clergy conduct code at all. Sean breaks down the proposal, the groups leading the backlash, and what this moment says about where PC(USA) — and the broader progressive project — is actually headed.
