William Lindsey :toad:"Christian Nationalism is a dangerous ideology that distorts the Gospel and turns Jesus and Christianity into a weapon for power and division instead of a movement towards love and justice. It demands that a particular brand of Christianity be privileged by the state and impose that singular belief system in order to be a 'good American.'” <a href="https://toad.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/Lutherans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lutherans</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/ReligiousFreedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReligiousFreedom</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/ELCA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ELCA</a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/ChristianNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChristianNationalism</a> /4

Bruce MacDonaldGuess I'm a Lutheran now. Just kidding; I'm not religious but how inspiring is this beautiful structure!If you turn south from Highway 61 and travel to Welch and then on to Vasa you can't miss it. Flat, expansive farm fields suddenly give way to twisty roads and steep ravines of the Driftless Area. "The third and present, church building was begun in 1867 and finished in 1869. It was built of bricks made in a brickyard just east of the parsonage, which was also built at this time. Two unique features of the church are that it has no interior pillars to block the view, and an unusual pulpit. The open Bible resting on a closed Bible enables the pastor to preach the Word with an open Bible while "standing upon the promises of God." The new church building was dedicated on September 11, 1870." — <a href="https://www.vasalutheran.org/history" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.vasalutheran.org/history</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Minnesota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Minnesota</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SilentSunday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SilentSunday</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SwedishHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SwedishHistory</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Lutherans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lutherans</a>

Larry RusswurmRecently it was discovered that <a href="https://boingboing.net/2024/02/13/methodist-pastor-sold-meth.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a Methodist pastor was dealing meth</a>. Now we can’t all be in the glamourous business of drug dealing, but here are some other things the religious might be a front for.If you guessed that a yogi might be a gateway religious icon for yoga, you would be very right. The words are very similar for a reason and lends credence(creedence?) to the rest of our examples.Have you ever thought that Presbyterians were a bit too nosy for their own good? Well, they might be a front for the press of the world. Always searching for that big scoop that will make a big name for themselves.Many protestant clergymen are known as ministers. This word is also a verb as to minister to the sick. These twisted people might rejoice in giving service. That’s sick, itself, needing more ministering.Lutherans could be a front for luthiers, you know, those who make and fix stringed instruments. So if you hear a hoedown coming from behind a Lutheran church, you know what is what.Monks could be a front for Monkees lovers. They do their awesome chanting until no one is within earshot, then break into, “Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees, and people say we monkey around, but we’re too busy singing to put anybody down.”The priesthood could mean any criminal priest. Maybe he sells meth like his methodist friend. Or perhaps he’s known for other crimes.Rabbis could be a front for selling rabbits. Do you have a petting zoo? Go see the rabbi for your rabbits and other small, yet cute, mammal needs.No matter how much you give to nuns, they are giving none away. After all, they are too busy being married to Jesus.Anglicans may think they are a front for angels. But they are too busy eyeing the angles for their best advantage.<a href="https://larryrusswurm.com/2024/03/09/things-the-religious-might-be-a-front-for/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://larryrusswurm.com/2024/03/09/things-the-religious-might-be-a-front-for/</a><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/angels/" target="_blank">#angels</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/angles/" target="_blank">#angles</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/anglicans/" target="_blank">#Anglicans</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/cergymen/" target="_blank">#cergymen</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/chanting/" target="_blank">#chanting</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/criminal-priest/" target="_blank">#criminalPriest</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/drug-dealing/" target="_blank">#drugDealing</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/lutherans/" target="_blank">#Lutherans</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/luthiers/" target="_blank">#luthiers</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/married-to-jesus/" target="_blank">#marriedToJesus</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/meth/" target="_blank">#meth</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/methodist-pastor/" target="_blank">#MethodistPastor</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/ministers/" target="_blank">#ministers</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/monkees/" target="_blank">#Monkees</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/monks/" target="_blank">#monks</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/nuns/" target="_blank">#nuns</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/presbyterians/" target="_blank">#Presbyterians</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/press/" target="_blank">#press</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/priesthood/" target="_blank">#priesthood</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/protestant/" target="_blank">#protestant</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/rabbis/" target="_blank">#rabbis</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/rabbits/" target="_blank">#rabbits</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/singing/" target="_blank">#singing</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/yoga/" target="_blank">#yoga</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://larryrusswurm.com/tag/yogi/" target="_blank">#yogi</a>

mostaleohtWe've found a bunch of <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/beer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beer</a> mugs on the curb, saying "Im Himmel gibt’s kein Bier, Drum trinken wir es hier" (there's no beer in <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Heaven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Heaven</a>, so we drink it here). Which sounds like a medieval song, but actually is something from the late 1950s<a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Im_Himmel_gibt%E2%80%99s_kein_Bier" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Im_Himmel_gibt%E2%80%99s_kein_Bier</a>Still theologically it sounds so weird! Why wouldn't there be no beer in Heaven? Did <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Lutherans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lutherans</a> believe that? We know that the <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/religion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#religion</a> of Gospels is quite explicitly pro-wine. Wouldn't there be beer in <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Christian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Christian</a> heaven by default?
