I guess it depends upon how you define ‘religious’.

You seem to condemn those of us who reject organized religion - and especially ‘religiosity’; but have you personally questioned all of us?

There are lots of people who believe profoundly in One God, do not worship false idols, but just aren’t comfortable with dogma and denominations, or people who tell us that theirs is the only way that is ‘right’.

We don’t answer surveys, and don’t tend to wear our faith on our sleeves.

If you want everyone to be a Lutheran, just say so. But you are disrespecting millions of people who think differently. A lot of people honor and respect God alone, in their ‘closets’.

I am a Lutheran. I do not want everyone to be a Lutheran. I want everyone to repent and believe the gospel of Christ, to obtain eternal attachment to God instead of eternal separation from God.

Christ is the only way. I am not telling you this; He said it. Either Christ was a fraud and a montebank, or it's the truth, and He is the only way.
