An evangelical church did this... pathetic. And fitting that it has this connection to Luther.
Hey, let’s leave Luther out of this, please. you can probably blame the secularism plaguing modern Europe, and liberalism infesting the churches.
“The robot on show is called ‘BlessU-2’ and was developed by the Evangelical Church in Hesse and Nassau.”
I’ve brought this up before here, but when referring to Germany at least, “evangelical” has a very different meaning from what it does in the United States. After World War II, Germany’s Protestant churches essentially were merged into the “Evangelical Church of Germany” (EKD). These aren’t Bible-believing churches. They’re most like the mainline Protestant churches here.
Despite including different denominations (like Lutheran and Reformed), the individual EKD churches don’t compete with each other. They each have their territory and a Lutheran church won’t move in on a Reformed, for example, or vice versa, and the churches share full altar and pulpit fellowship. Children in these churches are taught social liberalism and the social Gospel. That’s it.
