The church has a right and a responsibility ... to impose mandatory standards on its ministers.

You have a situation where any minister anywhere can claim, 'My conscience tells me I can sleep with 16-year-old girl outside my marriage vows,' and who's to question his conscience?

My candid response is it's extremely poorly reasoned and is not well decided.

She can be in this community and hold her conscience, but the church has its rights to its own governance.
