Free Methodist and UMC..what re the real differences

[Qoheleth]

Simply put, what are the real differences between these two denominations specifically. I hear that the FM is more inclined to "conservative" stances on issues and Christian morality and such.

Would anyone care to comment???

I don't know if this is a difference or not but I think I heard somewhere that Free Methodists are more open to Charismatic stuff than United Methodists are. Of course, I could be wrong and I don't even remember if I actually heard this or not. It could be something that I just made up in my brain and don't realize it so please don't take my word for it. I'd appreciate it if someone could comment on this becuase I don't want to spread false information accidently.
