Only 7 posts before the ELCA gets slammed.

Usually it's within 4.

Many of the ELCA's official pronouncements and decisions are in need of slamming! However, to be fair, let me hasten to add that there are still many faithful pastors, congregations, and laypeople left in the ELCA.

BTW, mine was not the first or only post on this thread to "slam" the ELCA. Virtually every post is doing so. It is the extremely liberal theology of the ELCA that makes liberal decisions like these inevitable.

The ELCA ought to be slammed before #4. The gay agenda there is a done deal- they are just playing and end game to make it palatable enough that the Bible-believing contingent doesn't walk... and you can take that to the bank. What denomination did the ELCA choose to cohabit with? Why, the Episcopalians, of course! And what denomination's youth group recently officially stated a need for homosexuals in the church hierarchy? Yes, it was the good old ELCA.

The Minneapolis Mud-pounders at the top are drunk with power and have got the keys to the car- I don't think I'd care to go along for the ride.

Ex-ELCA and glad of it.

HLL....The ELCA has not been hijacked by fruit loops...it was started by people with a very liberal agenda in 1988. Founding was not to advance Christianity but to try to normalize homosexuality through a large church. It is sickening.....The more you learn, the more you fear.

I went to a state synod meeting this year. Out of a couple thousand people, I think I was the only conservative. They bashed the war and promoted homosexuality. The literature section was all about sexuality and why we shouldn't stereotype Muslims.

Wake up...The national council and world council of churches are not about advancing Christianity either.
