Reform Movement Leaders call ELCA sexuality task force report misleading

Leaders of the WordAlone Network in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) said today that a task force majority report on ordaining people in same-sex relationships or blessing such relationships is an attempt to hoodwink “the people in the pews” into believing its recommendations won’t bring change to ELCA practices.

What do you think? Do you think if the Churchwide Assembly approves the idea of not disiplining those in violation of Visions and Expectations we will see changes in the local church?

For my situation, I worry more about what will happen at events sponsored by synods. I already do not allow my children to attend ELCA sponsored events because of the pro-homosexual indoctrination that is so common at these events. That is in addition to other politically correct silliness. I can imagine what will be allowed or even encouraged if we decide to wink at violations of what we say our standards are.
