Janke versus Schroeder

Janke and Schroeder are the finalists for WELS Synodical President.

If Janke wins, WELS has thrown in the towel on Lutheran doctrine, period.

Count the votes carefully, boys. More than one person knows the amalgamation vote was flipped. Amalgamation failed narrowly, but the results were reported as having it pass narrowly, according to Minnesota Fats, my source.

Church and Channge Wants Janke

The C and C people in WELS are the worst apostates. They want Janke.

Apostasy has a deep bench in WELS.

Wayne Mueller is still the power behind the throne.

Mrs. Ichabod needed a 5 hour medical test today, so I could not blog. She swallowed a radioactive egg for breakfast and they did special photographs of her digestive system. The test consumed a lot of time, but we no longer need a night-light.

This Just In!

James Huebner is now (11:50am CDT) out of the running leaving:

Paul Janke
Marc Schroeder
Paul Wendland.

The Synod Restructuring discussions continue, apparently evenly divided betwee those for the "streamlined" approach and those fearing a power grab. The text currently under consideration are not the same as those circulated 60 days prior to the convention and that has raised objections from several delegates. Further, there has been no hard copy of the latest version available to the delegates, rasing objections. Hard copies and continued discussion will be available at a time indicated by the steering committee.


James Huebner, Fuller Alumnus, is no longer in the running. He was clearly the worst choice of the Final Four. I do not know much about Paul Wendland. District Popes like Paul Janke are get-along, go-along guys. Marc Schroeder is the best choice left, a pleasant surprise for Ichabodians.
