The fact she left WELS because she was seeking higher office doesn’t sit well with me.
I can understand the issues it would pose, but if she didn’t believe what the Synod taught, she should have left before now.
Odd that there is media interest in the details of the church a presidential candidate used to attend. There certainly wasn’t in 2008.
If America is willing to put an ineligible Muslim in the WH it should be willing to put ANYTHING in it.
The orthodox Lutherans should point out that Luther hated the Jews a lot more than he hated the Catholics. Also, that Luther taught that it’s an unforgivable mortal sin to disobey the government.
These religious dogmas proved a tad bit embarrassing about 1944. One of the reasons there are more American Lutherans of German descent than there are German Lutherans nowadays.
Seems like Adolf Hitler was more of an anti-Christ than the Pope.
On the other hand, the guy wrote inspired church music.
Yeah yeah and Romneys church adopts many really strange views as do the Roman Catholics..
Barry Half-Whites church is off the scales with weirdness..
I’ve got a challenge for protestants on here. When has a Pope ever denied that Jesus came in the flesh? If you ask me this is just bad theology.
Let Michelle Bachmann talk to God.
The Catholic vote was very instrumental in Obama’s election, disturbingly so.
Roman Catholics certainly know how all other Christian denominations view the Roman Catholic religion. That is not in the least bit important to Roman Catholics. What is important to a Roman Catholic, is how the Roman Catholic Church views each of those denominations.
Michele Bachmann need not worry about losing any Roman Catholic votes due to this church she attended. We only hope Michele Bachmann comes home.
If this is how Rep Bachmann views the issue currently, then I have no problem supporting her. To me, the charge of “anti-Christ” is a serious one. If that makes me “oversensitive”, so be it.
What I’d like to know is, when did it become “ok” to be associated with an “anti-Christ”? When did that become no big deal (as apparently it isn’t a big deal for Rep Bachmann, although I think it’d still be reasonable to ask her about it). When did it become no big deal to my fellow Catholics, as apparently it is? That’s what I’d like to know; quite frankly I find it a bit disturbing to not take the charge if anti-Christ seriously anymore, cuz, I guess, it’s one if those old ideas, and we all know old ideas aren’t worth anything. </ sarc>
Anyway, the issue is done with me; if she wishes to speak personally on it I’d consider it a bonus.
