Didn’t the American Episcopal Church do that first?
Yes they beat the ELCA Lutherans by a couple years, and watching the whole thing is very much a deja vu experience. The same vicious homosexual hostility and collusion from political leftists that has crippled the episcopalians is at work destroying the Lutheran traditions and orthodoxies.
One of the sad things is that in both churches there is a large ballast of lifelong members, most of them getting up in years, who identify with the denomination and yet know very little of what is being perpetrated in their names.
