The ALCC and the Missouri Synod have both released statements that they do not believe the Pope is the anti-Christ.

thats not anywhere near correct:

Antichrists
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutheran_Church%E2%80%93Missouri_Synod#Antichrists
The LCMS holds that all “false teachers who teach contrary to Christ’s Word are opponents of Christ” and, insofar as they do so, are anti-Christ.[16] The LCMS does not teach, nor has it ever taught, that any individual Pope as a person is to be identified with the Antichrist.[16] However, to the extent that the papacy continues to claim as official dogma the canons and decrees of the Council of Trent, the LCMS position is that the office of the papacy is the Antichrist.
