Pound your own sand.

LCMS’ has failed to post a position paper on the subject:

What does this mean?

Get bent.

I’m an LCMS seminarian, and the seminary has never denied that Luther wrote that, and even include it in the volumes of his work. We also acknowledge that Luther was pro-Semite in his early life and only wrote that work when he’d heard that the Jews of the time were trying to stop the spread of the Gospel. And that’s what Luther did; if something impeded the Gospel in his eyes, he let his potty mouth loose. It doesn’t mean that we take it as doctrine.

Not that you’ll pay attention to anything I say; it feels so GOOD to hate the LCMS that you won’t ever want to change your mind.

Perhaps you’d like me to start poking holes in YOUR faith?

Since none of the links work from you link, it probably means nothing, if you have a complaint, summarize it.

LCMS’ has failed to post a position paper on the subject:

Likely because it isn't important. They haven't published a position paper on whether the earth is flat or any number of other inane subjects, so if you have a point, make it.

One thing it means is that you search poorly on the Net. Could be your rage, but a quick search of the LCMS.org website reveals this:

http://www.lcms.org/faqs

LCMS views

Contemporary Issues

Pg 13 Luther’s Anti-semitism

Addressed in 1983, so perhaps the 30 yeas ago answer doesn't satisfy you but then, who's fault is that?
