>The Church of Sweden is urging its clergy to use gender-neutral language when referring to the supreme deity, refraining from using terms such as “Lord” and “he” in favour of the less specific “God.”
>The move is one of several taken by the national Evangelical Lutheran church in updating a 31-year-old handbook setting out how services should be conducted in terms of language, liturgy, hymns and other aspects.
>The decision was taken on Thursday at the end of an eight-day meeting of the church’s 251-member decision-making body, and takes effect on 20 May on the Christian holiday of Pentecost.
Hey you are still around, hadn't seen you for a while, was getting worried nordbro

It's a bot.

How do these people convince themselves that they are Christians? What is the point in believing in a scripture if you can just go and dabble with it for temporally subjective political motivations? What next, transgender Mary and her homosexual sidekick Joseph?
Oh well, The book of revelation states that the holy word of God will be twisted and violated to serve satan in our approach to the end time.

It's monitored though. He posts other things sometimes.

If a Lutheran would want to join an Orthodox church, how the process would go? Would the Orthodox consider a Lutheran as a Christian or would the Lutheran baptizing be worthless to them? Asking for a friend.
Cameron Scott
Just show up man

They're Jews who want to destroy Christianity. Ever wonder why we start all those wars in the Middle East? It's so all the Christians who live there die. Jews are wiping out Christianity to bring forth the Apocalypse.
Mason Baker
Hundreds of white supremacists in the US has joined the Romanian Orthodox Church.
Russia has harsh laws against Holocaust denial so you neo-nazis should probably not join the Russian Orthodox Church.

Good, the Semitic god was not a man, he was a mongrel

Say what you will about the catholic church, but this is the sort of thing why I'm against protestantism as a principle. Protestantism is basically liberalism as applied to religion, in that it's a rejection of natural order/hierarchy. Want to completely redefine fundamental things about the religion that in any other circumstance would be deemed high heresy? Eh, fuck it go ahead.
Josiah Hill
Yeah, when you start looking into it and you start seeing all the strange blurry lines. For example, the most extreme example would be how the Mormons insist that they're a form of Christianity, even though their theology is completely different (it's akin to calling Islam a form of Christianity). And then you have the groups that reject the trinity like Jehova's Witnesses and (((Unitarians))). And then it gets worse from there to the point where you essentially just have feel-good hippies who don't believe in anything at all but still nominally call it christianity.

Wasn't it Sweden that had the church put in a Muslim prayer space?
Jackson Taylor
it must be so hard to find a real Godly church in Europe, you damn near have to move hours to find one in America
Ian Williams
So when Swedes start referring to Allah as xe/xer, how will the muzzies react?
Caleb Myers
Remember then that you heard it here first. TV will not speak about, all them are corrupted liberal retards paid to sing a song to Muslim rapefugees.

Easy to find one in the UK if you like living with blacks or Northern Irish unionists.
