Ahhhhh a hawk!

How do you tell if chickens are Methodists?!

Aha!

I'd never heard this phrase.

Mind you, what I know of Christianity is mainly England in the 1500-1700s [I did medieval and Early Modern history at uni]

plus being unwillingly dragged along to Baptist and then Anglican churches in Australia as a child/teen...

p.s. in Australia the Methodists merged with the Presbyterians to make the Uniting Church, which is the most women-friendly and LGBT-friendly of any of the Australian churches - they've ordained as ministers not only cis women, but gay women, and trans women.

I was raised Episcopalian, which is mostly CofE but in the US (Catholic Lite: all the ritual, 1/3 the guilt!), and took some art and literature classes that dealt with the medieval Church, and have picked up random things here and there that may or may not be correct. No idea where I got the "church or chapel?" thing from!
