Hmmm. The NALC this week votes to organize a new Lutheran Church body. Yet Mark Hanson, head of the ELCA makes a statement imploring against “rushing to judgment and closing off discussion.”. Since the congregations involving themselves with the NALC have already voted to sever ties with the ELCA, it would seem Hanson is addressing dissenters within his own synod. Methinks there must be a great deal of dissension going on within the ELCA at this time...

“rushing to judgment and closing off discussion.”.
Like the ELCA CWA 2009 did?
