It's the same pattern in every Protestant denomination. First the liberals get themselves elected to the local leadership. Then they get themselves elected to the district leadership. Then they end up delegates or voters at the parish/synod national voters meeting or equivalent.
Before you know it, they have hijacked an entire denomination from the vast conservative majority and begin to twist it into something unbiblical and unrecognizable. It always starts with "committees" to "explore" the "issue" of, say, women pastors, or same-sex unions, or biblical inerrancy...and before you can say "apostasy" they've plunged the denomination into chaos and discord, overturning the wishes of the majority and telling them in no uncertain terms to go to hell. This is what happened with the ELCA, the PC USA, the United Methodists, the Episcopalians, etc. The first stages of the same thing are underway in the LCMS with Kieschnik or whatever his name is. "This isn't your grandfather's church". Nice attitude. That's his way of telling the conservative majority to go to hell.
So it begins.
On Sundays during the summer, there is no LCMS congregation anywhere near so I attend Mass. Whether the parish priest is personally heretical (he's not), the liturgy is sound and the doctrine, with minor exception, differs not a whit from that announced in the Augsburg Confession. I find it much easier to think about baseball during a prayer for the magisterium than I do to think about Scripture during a hymn accompanied by bongo drums.
