When Appletonians pontificate, even the babies face palm. |
Jackson is now doing his typical thing of distracting from the real issue and claiming that I was justifying impersonation on this blog when I said that the fake-Brett Meyer quote was not slander. That is not true. IMPERSONATION IS WRONG. Let me be clear about that. My point was only that it was not slander. Slander is telling lies about someone in an attempt to make them look bad. My point was merely that whoever pretended to be Brett Meyer was not engaging in slander because they were not telling lies about his positions on things. Rather they were making him look bad by telling people what he normally says. Jackson as usual is simply changing the subject in order to distract from the real issue. Also, why does he have a picture of J.I. Packer? What does the LCMS' acceptance of the ESV have to do with any of this?

GJ - Some people think that Joel Lillo is in on this. The Appleton gang are all peas in a pod, so it does not matter. WELS funded Church and Change because the leaders of Church and Change were synod officers. Oh, it is so much fun to spend other people's money.
Fox Valley was developed as an all Church and Change doctrinal slum. Steve Witte served two different congregations in the same area. How often does that happen? Ethical leaders avoid that, but ethical leaders are in short supply in these last days of an insane, old world.
The members and pastors sat on their hands, letting a brush fire turn into a forest fire. Now they are watching it burn down while their cluck their tongues.
Above is one of those self-absolving excuses that energize WELS. Impersonating someone is not just wrong - it is a crime. For some reason, that crime keeps happening with the same group of thugs. The post excuses the crime, even though the whole idea was to create a bad impression using the disguise of another person.
The pastors involved pretend not to know who is doing what, but that is typical GA double-talk. They were born forgiven, so that allows them to do whatever they want. No wonder the only doctrine they defend is their toxic UOJ opinion. Nothing gets a WELSian frothier than justification by faith. It is almost like transporting the Pharisees to the 21st century.
This is a bit too obvious to mention - these sob-sisters have always posted anonymously, yet they attack people by name. That is the template for the WELS Shrinkers. They hide behind their "WELS Grapevine" and drop stinkbombs on their fellow pastors - by name. They always use personal attacks. John Lawrenz did not like the Harold Sauer paper, so he said to me, "His parish is dead!" Meanwhile, Lawrenz was denouncing Sauer for "naming names." Of course, Sauer was naming the false teachers in WELS, the Church and Chicanery brotherhood. Sauer's paper was quite kindly, just as he was.
The WELS Grapevine said Corky criticized their precious Church Growth and amalgamation because he was "brain-damaged." The former seminary president, Schuetze, opposed closing NWC because "he was senile."
