Welcome To Post-Christian Protestantism Where Liberal Feminist Pastors Rule
By Jonathon Van Maren
February 26, 2019
Many of the mainline Protestant denominations are such an anti-Christian farce these days that it's hard to keep up.
The United Church of Canada is not united, not a church, and even has an atheist pastor. The Church of England is experimenting with a fictitious new pseudo-sacrament to celebrate the sex change surgeries of transgender people (who they are also trying to recruit to the clergy.)
And then there's the so-called Lutheran theologian and pastor Nadia Bolz-Weber, who until July of last year headed up the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America in Denver, Colorado.
A tattooed, cussing clergyperson, she last made news announcing that it was terrible to "shame" people for porn consumption, and that "ethically-sourced porn" might be a good option for those who ordinarily consume porn that is, presumably, not "ethically-sourced."
To "shame" people is one of the only sins left in progressive denominations, which is why Bolz-Weber told another journalist that she doesn't like using the world "sin." Considering the positions she holds, this isn't particularly surprising.
She's recently gone on a book tour to promote her latest exercise in self-justification, titled Shameless: A Sexual Reformation, which essentially invites post-Christian church attendees (and anyone else--she isn't picky) to join the Sexual Revolution.

The book jacket states that, "She urges us to take antiquated, sexist ideas about sex, gender, and our bodies and burn them the f---- down and start over." By "antiquated ideas," of course, she means "biblical" or "Christian" ideas. At one church she pastored, she had a "Minister of Fabulousness" help her out. That "minister" was a drag queen.
