Racial Justice? Does that have anything to do with Justice Justice?

Yes. Racial Justice is the precise opposite of Justice Justice.

Yeah I stand by my original statement that Hanson is one of the most evil men in the world. I met the man at an event and he came off as Bill Ayers wearing a frock.

He basically stands for the opposite of everything stated in the Bible. The man only cares about the humanist "Social Justice" which is incorporating Marxist teaching into the Church while weeding out real Scripture.

This men is leading many souls to damnation, you have my word on that. Anyone who supports this creep is disgusting. Hundreds of Churches have fled the ELCA, so this guy changes the rules to make it more difficult to leave the ELCA.

I have no pity when this man meets his maker...

NO ONE even in Chicago is talking about all the murders that have occurred.

It's sad but true, but when the temperature gets above 80 that's when the 40 ounces come out and the guns are blazing.

It is an absolute fact. The folks I pinged can verify that.

It's like the OWS creeps. They crawl under a rock when winter hits, as soon as the weather gets better, it's time to destroy Zucchini Park!!! Well in Chicago, the gang bangers start shooting people.

But since it is blacks killing people, we can't talk about that, otherwise we are "racists".

Leftist trash.

How much longer shall any young person live in fear (and be feared) because of the color of their skin? Are we who are white ready to confront and lay down our power and privilege for the sake of a more just and inclusive society?

In the eyes of the Left, Black people are forever poor broke shivering little creatures who need their help. Ie, the White Man's Burden.

I am no Man's burden.

This really bothers me. I am a member of the church. Not a good member, but I was confirmed in it 54 years ago and I still attend several times a year. The message of the Gospel is to individuals, not to groups, just as the the Bill of Rights is for individuals, not groups. If the bishop was to make a statement condemning crimes and transgressions of the 10 commandments he would be on solid ground. But he has no more business commenting on any racial aspect of this situation than Obama does.
This emphasis on white guilt is harmless if it leads to missionaries in Tanzania, but if it is used to make ethnic Swedes, Norwegians and other northern Europeans advance the standard liberal agenda(gay pastors, gay marraige, full socialism) then I guess I need to withdraw even my lukewarm support.

This past Sunday, we had a teenaged black male attend LCMS services at our church. I am sure he felt so threatened by the older white folks who came up to him and hugged him after the service.

+100

It’s been called the “bigotry of low expectations”.
