ELCA completely embraces homosexuality

ELCA completely embraces homosexuality

The Evangelical Lutheran Church of America in convention went for the trifecta in affirming homosexuality. The liberal Lutherans ruled that homosexual sex is moral, allowed churches to bless gay unions, and allowed non-celibate gays to be pastors. In each case, the approval applies only to “monogamous” relationships. The new policy does not address gay marriage as such. The only church body that does affirm gay marriage is the United Church of Christ. Still, the news service Reuters, linked above, says that the ELCA now has one of the most liberal policies about homosexuality of any other American church body.

FURTHER THOUGHTS: But “monogamous” means married to one person! In setting up this standard, the ELCA is surely advocating de facto gay marriage.
