Secular Jews and Liberal Catholics gave us this abomination. Along with atheists.
If he is black, it is OK.
Re: “So it is wrong to even make the generalization about the people who happened to be born Jewish who were part of the movement. They acted against Judaism (and Christianity); not because of it.”
Very well said.
Exactly. Leftism is a church unto itself. It and all sincere, Bible based religions are mutually exclusive.
What brand of Lutheran is this guy?
It is the LEFT that does that. There are plenty of prominent, activist Jews on our side.
Let’s face reality that for whatever reason Jewish people tend to be overachievers in many areas and in the whole political spectrum and stop scapegoating them. We need to go after the individuals pushers of destructive values in a discriminating way - be they Jewish, German, French, muslims, or whatever. Let’s not let envy cloud our thinking.
He lists his education as:
Westminster Theological Seminary is a Presbyterian and Reformed Christian graduate educational institution located in Glenside, Pennsylvania, with a satellite location in London, England.
Do you think there is something in common in their Jewish background, being persecuted outsiders in Europe and coming from a religious tradition that pushed socialism in the synagogues, that caused Jewish intellectuals in the 1800s to create a socialist model for taking over the world that was then transferred to the United States when many of them migrated after the 1890s? In other words, not to lend credence to this rank anti-Jewish guy, but to acknowledge that some Jews for a variety of reasons had a big part in the spread of socialist ideas in the US and Europe, and formed the core of the Communist Party when it was constituted in the US? This history then leading to the vast majority of US Jews supporting the Democrat party even while leading very capitalistic personal lives.
A Lutheran is the source for this article.
A couple of idiots here agreed.
I point that out and you take it to the nth degree.
Guess you agree with them.
The Orthodox Jews tend to be the most reliably politically conservative.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism…
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion.
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [”]united force[”] to solve economic, political or social problems.

SCOTUS - Socialist Court of Totalitarians Undermining Society…America’s robed mullahs.
Sometimes the law defends plunder and participates in it. Thus the beneficiaries are spared the shame, danger, and scruple which their acts would otherwise involve. Sometimes the law places the whole apparatus of judges, police, prisons, and gendarmes at the service of the plunderers, and treats the victim — when he defends himself — as a criminal
How to Identify Legal Plunder
But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime.
Then abolish this law without delay, for it is not only an evil itself, but also it is a fertile source for further evils because it invites reprisals. If such a law — which may be an isolated case — is not abolished immediately, it will spread, multiply, and develop into a system.
You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help.
The Results of Legal Plunder
It is impossible to introduce into society a greater change and a greater evil than this: the conversion of the law into an instrument of plunder.
Socialism Is Legal Plunder
Frederic Bastiat - The Law
got freedom?
…a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.
/declaration
From the founding of the United States through the 1920’s, the “private sector,” as it is now called, was the nation’s dominant element; the state and the principle of statism were alway encroaching; but always peripheral. The New Deal, including its progeny of wartime controls and its Fair Deal successor, ended that historical relationship. After the two Roosevelts, America was no longer an essentially capitalist country with a sprinkling of controls. Nor, was it a socialist country. It was and still is a modern “mixed economy,” with the philosophic base and the political future that this implies. In a mixed economy one of the two elements gradually withers away. That element is not the state.

10. “Divide and govern” is a maxim consecrated by the experience of ages, and should be familiar in its use to every politician as the knife he carries in his pocket. In the work here to be executed, the best effects may be produced by this maxim, and with peculiar facility. An extensive republic made up of lesser republics necessarily contains various sorts of people, distinguished by local and other interests and prejudices.
11. As soon as sufficient progress in the intended change shall have been made, and the public mind duly prepared according to the rules already laid down, it will be proper to venture on another and a bolder step toward a removal of the constitutional landmarks.

Most of the primary shapers of socialist thought were rank Jew haters (Marx, Proudhon, Bakunin...).
Says a great deal about this guy right there.
Apparently in the 21st Century you are not eligible to serve on the US Supreme Court if you are a protestant and attended a state university.
“I point that out and you take it to the nth degree.
Guess you agree with them.”
No, I am saying it is also troubling that some posters are trying to tie all Lutherans to the jerkwad in the article. Do you disagree that is also troubling?
>>What brand of Lutheran is this guy?
http://www.google.com/#q=The+Jews+and+their+lies
Evidently the original “brand”, unfortunately.
But it’s not something that I ever observed disclosed while attending the LCMS’ elementary/Jr. High/ High Schools, or Universities...
Well, fortunately nothing bad came out of that.
Oh, wait...
Martin Luther himself held some rabidly anti-Semitic views. The Lutheran Church has since formally backtracked from them an issued a formal apology to the Jews. This fellow appears to be an outlier who did not get the message.
Given Robert’s key decisions I would probably have added ‘Apostate’ behind him as well.
Not a simple answer...
His church, Immanuel Lutheran in San Antonio, is LCMS, same as my denomination. However, on the LCMS site here he is not listed as the pastor--there is no pastor listed--and the congregation is supposed to have only 32 members. The LCMS logo is not on the church sign per Google Maps, and frankly the church looks really small--and that's saying something, given that my church has just over 70 members. The mailing address for the church, moreover, is actually the address for Holy Cross Lutheran, which has about 100 members and a pastor listed.
Finally, on Mr. Dankof's own web page he lists Valpariso and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, which is non-denominational. This is pertinent, since to become an LCMS pastor one must have graduated from one of the two LCMS schools, in Ft. Wayne, IN and St. Louis, MO. So Mr. Dankof cannot be the pastor of Immanuel Lutheran, though he may or may not be going through the motions of performing pastoral duties there.
Bottom line: he is not an LCMS pastor by any recognizable definition of the term, he cannot speak for the LCMS, and he certainly does not speak for me, and by any fair reading of Scripture, for God.
