As polyamory gains visibility, monogamy faces a vote in the Presbyterian Church (USA)
The measure would require ordained ministers to be monogamous, while a separate proposal calls for theological study of gender, sexuality and family structures.
The Presbyterian Church General Assembly will vote on proposal CON-10 this summer, which would require ordained clergy to be monogamous.
The proposal CON-10 has sparked strong online reactions but lacks broad support from PCUSA groups so far.
More Light Presbyterians stated that the monogamy proposal targets queer communities.
Three advisory committees recommended voting against CON-10, citing its narrow family definition and confusing language.
