"It is the outlandish and terrifying spawn of a Donatist priest and the Human Resources lady." This is a brilliantly written turn of phrase and, simultaneously, absolutely terrifying.
Last week my mother in law tried to convince my wife and me that the Sacrament of the Altar is only a symbol. I know she was raised Missouri Synod, so I can only assume this sad interpretation is the function of attending an ELCA church which is less of a church than a generic civic organization.
I don't imagine the ELCA has any use for Confessional Lutherans and the ELCA would be more than happy to see the backs of them, if any remain.
I know someone who sat in a Missouri Synod church for decades, left and went to an Evangelical church for a few months, and then told me that the Sacrament of the Altar is a matter of denominational interpretation. I don't understand how quick people are to believe that it's NOT the Body and Blood. The Old Adam in us all is so vulnerable to attack.
DEI is pervasive in LCMS marketing, on church websites and throughout cph product. The diversity in the pews doesn't even close to match the advertised diversity in the online and print representations.
The XXXA is an apostate DEI organization, whose religiopolitical platform is no more associated with the Lutheran Church than that of the Mormons... or a coven of witches.
There may be some Christians still attending XXXA gatherings, and the only question that might be asked is, "Why?!?"

One wonders if confessional Lutherans are one of the "diversity groups" they so highly value and protect.
