Of course, it will be appealed and wind its way through a process of judicial, if not national debate before all is said and done, but the mind fairly boggles at the arrogant absurdity of a court in this land ruling the National Day of Prayer unconstitutional. Back when George W. Bush occupied the Oval Office, the radical anti-theist group (read: atheists on steroids), “Freedom From Religion,” filed a lawsuit and the toxic seed planted then has now borne poisonous fruit. Stay tuned.

GJ - When Curtis Peterson left the LCMS as a pastor and joined WELS, he told Herman Otten how much he appreciated Ralph Bohlmann promoting the Church Growth Movement in the Missouri Synod.
Peterson immediately had a large church and a position on the world mission board - with David Valleskey.
Peterson wrote essays promoting Church Growth, at least one ensconced in the modern Ark of the Covenant - the WELS Essay files.
Otten still promotes the Church Growth Movement, selling Valleskey's book on Shrinkage as a doctrinal book.
And buddy Peterson is one of the mouthy members of Freedom From Religion.
I know three different WELS pastors who were once Shrinkers and are now atheists.
Do WELS, Missouri, and ELS leaders have guilty consciences? I doubt it.
