ELCA Postings: Liberal Causes

3/3/2017

Below an ELCA synod posts pictures of kids sharing their reasons for opposing fracking. I did not see the synod post pictures of children voicing their support for fracking:

- Then we have ELCA Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton taking a position on the Standing Rock pipeline issue and she points to racism as a reason for the crisis. She writes:

“I believe that we are called as a church to support the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe: to stand with the Tribe as they seek justice, to encourage our congregations to pray for them and to offer material support, and to examine the racism inherent in our system that contributes to the current crisis.” (see here)

- Standing on the liberal side again, WELCA posts a blog that opposes the celebration of Columbus Day:

Today's blogger is happy the organization where she works— @ELCA —does not observe Columbus Day as a holiday. https://t.co/dZVENtbOxq pic.twitter.com/M1kocagVCw

- During the spring of 2015 the ELCA’s St. Ansgar Lutheran Church in Portland, Maine celebrated ecofeminism! (see here)

The Democrat Party doesn't have a more loyal subsidiary than the ELCA. Whatever the Party's preaching will be on the lips, Facebook accounts and Twitter accounts of its dutiful ELCA lieutenants. And Party leaders periodically pat their ELCA lapdogs on the heads to make sure they don't inadvertently stray into advancing any cause other than godless Leftism.

The good news: no biblically literate Christians are taking the ELCA for an actual church these days.

So if you're in favor of fracking or the Keystone Pipeline, does that mean you're somehow less-than- moral, less-than godly, or less-than-Christian? Are those the questions we will be asked on Judgment Day? (Somehow, I don't think so!)

Perhaps Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton could move to the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota and live there for a year. She could work in the most poverty stricken area of the nation.
Its really easy to make some signs in Maryland and take photos of yourselves, or make a Twitter statement about Columbus. I bet those people felt really good about themselves that evening as they dined on their fine meals in their nice $300K suburban houses.

Why don't you be more like the Little Sisters of the Poor (whom the Democrats hate) and move to Pine Ridge and live in poverty to help the American Indians? Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton, you could even where that big over sized cross while you are there.

Let's be clear -- this is the best they've got. These poor wannabe-activist saps literally have nothing better to say or to do. They have sold an eternal inheritance for the cheap pottage of the fringey-est, most ephemeral causes they can find. This is what happens when the agenda becomes ABC -- Anything But Christ. What a sad waste.

On the flip side, the Good News is that every day Jesus Christ buries dead-end lives, and offers new eternal lives, all over the world. When/if the wannabes get bored with zoning and retconning, I hope they will look into Him.

Bishop Eaton & her staff of the ever shrinking ELCA seem very concerned about our environment & the use of fossil fuels. Certainly this must mean the Bishop walks or rides a bicycle to attend any liberal social justice gatherings such as the recent Washington Womens March to really "walk the talk".
