Who are to blame for this? It is mainly the feminists!!!! We now have a bogus feminazi hymnal and liturgy book shot-through with "inclusive language", and hordes of feminazi and "gay"-friendly pastors and "bishops" who won't even call God Father. Our seminaries have become factories for turning out little ordained feminazis, peaceniks, near-Unitarians, and muslim-kissers.
If ELCA pastors deny the Father, they will also deny the Son. Not only did that ELCA pastor at Virginia Tech leave out the Risen Christ, but the ELCA presiding "bishop", in his message about the tragedy, refused to call God Father. Instead, he used a prayer from the bogus new hymnal, that called God "Holy One" instead. He even touted that new hymnal rather than concentrating on the Virginia Tech community in their dire need.
That is what the ELCA has come to. Lord have mercy!
Indeed sir, indeed.
