I am not sure what you are getting at, by the term "structured" please explain.Also, I have one additional question of great importance, and that is, how are SDA efforts against gay marriage, transsexual propaganda directed towards children,
abortion and euthanasia structured,
The offical postion on gay marriage is that they are opposed to it. BUT in recent years in the colleges there has been a major push for a move to the left and more inclusion of LGBT+ by the liberal progressive wing of the church. This wing is relatively new and young and has it's strongest hold among the academics. Spectrum Magazine is the champion of these views. the coast are the places where the Progressive have the strongest holds. PUC, pacific union college, AUC atlantic Union college (until it shut down) Washington DC Adventist University, La serria Univerisity and Loma LInda University. They are the most liberal. Union college has had bouts of this but a lot of the people have retired. PUC which I was most recently connected too. Had members of the class which were openly Gay and professors where openly pushing for some kind of acceptence. the most liberal areas of the chruch are North America, Europe & Australia, I am not sure how that effects the church in those areas, people in liberal areas who go to church tend to be more conservative, because they are choosing it for themselves. if they were liberal they would not go to church.
ON the issue of abortion the church is pro-choice. A decision made by the leadership of the church in 1984 with out the consent of the membership.
As far a euthanasia goes. I am not sure they have a postion? I have never heard of it.
no, the SDA Church dose not oppose birth control.and does the SDA oppose birth control like the Catholics and traditional Orthodox and Protestants?
