I've heard rumors and discussions about these for the last couple of years. Which of these do you think may happen in the next 20 years, say better than a 1 in 3 likelihood?

Is 'chance' a word we ought to use?
I really don't think that our Calvinist credentials are in jeopardy because we use the word "chance".
I wouldn't be surprised to see some PCA churches that find the denomination too "liberal" joined to and received by the OPC, and others that find the denomination too "restrictive" joined to and received by the EPC or RCA. As far as wholesale church unions, I dunno. Maybe the UCC and the Unitarians?!
PCUSA and UCC
We all know it will be with the Episcopal Church!
As a CRC / RCA merger seems to be anticipated by voters here, can someone give background particularly on the RCA and why a merger would be likely?
ELCA and whatever liberal body is going to buy them out to get their memberships up.

I could see the ELCA go in with the eventual PCUSA-UCC-TEC merger. Maybe throw in the "Disciples of Christ" for good measure. They can sing kumbaya and eat pudding together.
ABCUSA and Cooperative Baptists - 40-65%
ABCUSA and Alliance of Baptists - 30-45%

They can have them.
Frankly, the Alliance has much in common with the more liberal ABC people and the Cooperatives have more in common with the more middle-of-the-road ABC folks. For the conservatives still in the ABC, the Cooperatives are a bit to the left of most conservatives but acceptable to most (mainly because most of them are more conservative than the far left of the ABC).
Which "they" can have which "them"???
Are you suggesting the sheep to be wolves among the wolves? Shocking! (and thought-provoking)
