The day after this graphic posted, President Harrison blogs about being vigilant against the enemies of unity. I perceive that as a response to this graphic and what Ichabod has been revealing lately about the LCMS seminaries ripping off the federal govt in order to prop up Walther's Babylon.
Just think. Walther calls the greatest Lutheran theologians Arminians, and all Harrison can think about is how this might hurt unity. It reminds me of Professor Sauer's frustration that when he brings up merging the two seminaries (like the Canadian synod just did with their two seminaries), the LCMS bigwigs sign a statement saying such discussion must end because it is hurting fundraising and recruiting for the seminaries. That's exactly mirrors the response of Pope Leo X who wanted to quash discussion about Tetzel and indulgences because it was hurting fundraising for St. Peter's cathedral. ------------------ From Pr.
