The ELCA-affiliated Lutheran church I was confirmed in began to drift leftward beginning in the 1960's, and now has a rather large building which is utilized by fewer and fewer people. Lots of "diversity," earth stewardship" and even "interpretive dance," but little Biblical teaching (it isn't even Jesus Lite anymore according to those who have recently left the place).

The ELCA was already heading for a cliff, what with the gradual natural attrition of gullible old folks with assets the "shepherds" can fleece, and Mark Hanson's heresy is just a bit more pressure on the gas pedal. There's going to be a lot of run-down buildings and sites available in a buyer's market.

Another reason we left the ELCA church. Bad policy there.
