God the Hen, God the Baker: Tim Walz’s ‘Church’ Is About What You’d Expect

Hey, Tim Walz isn’t so bad. In an age when leftists compete with one another in how much they can repudiate and mock traditional values, it is surprising and refreshing to discover that the Democrats’ shiny new vice-presidential candidate, America’s dad, is a regular churchgoer. Walz’s Christian piety, however, is not exactly the sort of thing that would put you in mind of Augustine, Aquinas, Martin Luther, Mother Theresa, or any other prominent Christian you’d care to name. In fact, it’s just the sort of thing you’d expect: the far left at prayer.

The Daily Caller reported Wednesday that Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz attends a church, all right, but you will not be surprised to learn that it’s not exactly a bastion of Christianity as it has been known up until these enlightened days. Walz attends Pilgrim Lutheran Church in St. Paul, Minn., where the worship is as woke as it can be. If it weren’t for the folks walking around in robes and the occasional prayers, Walz might sometimes get confused and think that he is at a Democrat party meeting, for Pilgrim Lutheran is little more than the Democrat platform in ecclesiastical trappings.

Pilgrim Lutheran’s stances on everything are tediously predictable, and 100% in line with the latest far-left wisdom. The Caller notes that “materials published by Pilgrim Lutheran Church instruct parishioners not to refer to God using male pronouns, push congregants to support reparation funds, encourage them to celebrate Ramadan and include a modified gender-neutral version of the Lord’s Prayer, among other liberal practices.” Of course. Anything else would be racist, bigoted, sexist, and “Islamophobic.” Pilgrim Lutheran’s leadership would no doubt rather be burned at the stake rather than be accused of any of those beyond-mortal sins.

Pilgrim Lutheran itself is an outpost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), which ditched traditional Protestant Christianity quite some time ago in order to chase after the left’s latest cultural fads and imbue them with a patina of sanctity. And so it is no surprise once again that the ELCA not only has female bishops but lesbian bishops, as well as female bishops who are really men but have demanded that everyone around them pretend that they’re women.

Weirdos

[Bryan]

Farther left than the Unitarians?

Farther left than Jeremiah Wright's Trinity United "Church" of Christ? Wright is the guy who

(A) married Barry & Moo-chelle Soetero,

(B) baptized both of their daughters,

(C) was BFFs with Louis Farrakhan,

(D) provided the phrase "The Audacity of Hope" from one of his sermons, as the title of one of the two books ghost-written for Barry Soetero by William Ayers, of Weather Underground infamy,

(E) visited Muammar Khadafy in Libya,

(F) served as a "spiritual advisor" for Barry Soetero's presidential campaign in 2008 & then

(G) when Barry's continued attendance at TUCC was confirmed by my friend Jim Davis (first at Newsmax, then at Daily Caller), was dropped like a hot rock so that Barry wouldn't P!$$ off left-wing Jewish voters.

SAY IT AIN'T SO, JOE.

I don’t suppose those geniuses realize that all hens are female.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

I would seem these gay henners are headed for Gahenna.

.
Yeah, they are crazy.

Crazy Political, too

[Greg123456]

I assume “hen” refers to Matt 23:37.

The church checks off all the usual pro-choice/ pro-LGBTQ boxes, uses the “Inclusive Bible” for all scripture readings and say they are committed to

-Antiracism work, de-centering whiteness, and making reparations for race violence

-LGBTQIA+ affirmation and making a safe space for people of all genders and orientations

-Gender equity and ensuring that the voices of women and nonbinary/gender non-conforming individuals are amplified

-Accessible spaces that all bodies can navigate with ease

-A planet we can thrive in for many generations to come, including supporting efforts to uplift and protect indigenous care of the land

During a June 12 sermon, David Weiss preached a message for Trinity Sunday, which is supposed to be dedicated to expounding on this glorious doctrine. Instead, however, Weiss shared that..... “I’m not much interested in reflecting on the sacred mystery of the godhead: three persons in one divinity … whatever that means” in light of being “transfixed (all over again) by the spectacle of January 6, the fragility of our democracy, and the rising threat of authoritarian white “Christian” nationalism that seems hellbent on making America “great” again by erasing voting rights, reproductive rights, and pursuing a xenophobic assault manner of civil rights.”

There is no way you can call yourself a Christian and vote for the rat party. These people are such heretics.

Times 💯.

Church of the Poisoned Mind...

Under the influence of satan.

Today Harris repeatedly said....”We’re a collective - we believe in the Collective”
That’s Communist talk right there.

[Dan Zachary]

“I’m not much interested in reflecting on the sacred mystery of the godhead: three persons in one divinity … whatever that means”

He isn’t interested in reflecting on what arguably is the most important part of his religion? He is more concerned with “January 6, the fragility of our democracy, and the rising threat of authoritarian white “Christian” nationalism” than his own Christian religion?

This is the dem party being passed off as religion.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Why are they so obsessed with race?
Did the Norwegian bachelor farmers of Minnesota use black slaves to harvest the cotton crops?

I figure the riot property damage and lives taken by the dusky ones was more than enough reparations. Paid in full, by Minnesotans who never kept slaves, and where slavery was never legal.

However, the Pilgrim Lutheran Church believes it's just okey-dokey to hate Israel and Jews, but love terrorists.

[TimSkalaBim]

So would seem the old leftist mantra about “separation of church and state” is highly selective, ready to be applied (or not) in any situation!

Joe Biden: I am a devout Catholic but my son is a Crystal Methodist.
