In August of 2001 the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) estabalished a "Full Communion Partnership" with The Episcopal Church through the adoption of "Called to Common Mission".

Therefore:

Lutheran (EL C S*A) Ping!

* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.

Be rooted in Christ!

Thanks for the ping, lightman.

2nd Timothy 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts; and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.

After years of watching the denominational "leadership" (I mean that in the same vein that Tinkerbell was part of the leadership cadre there in NeverNeverLand) within the elca, pcusa, tec, et cetera, being driven by the itching in their ears, it has finally come down to simply being too mundane, too common, and too tedious to get up in arms about any longer.

Even the redoubtable Vicke Gene Robinson recently complained that "[his "marital status"] is nobody's damn business." virtue on line Vicke made sure it was everybody's business a few years ago, though. This religious pioneering and moral groundbreaking stuff is tough duty. Seems it can wear on a chap.

Seems the fabric is getting a bit frayed, tawdry, and tiresome.

(yaw-n-n-n) Bedtime...g'night, all y'all.
