It's a bit creepy. Jackson now has 41 official posts on Hochmuth. He claims that the WELS must have known. But why? My boss doesn't have any idea about my political or religious belief, much less what I look at on the internet. Why should the WELS hierarchy have known anything about Hochmuth?

GJ - Joel Hochmuth was previously counseled for his man-boy addiction. WELS has clammed up about who knew what and when.
However, the local area network administrator at WELS Headquarters, The Love Shack, where 300+ man-boy pictures and videos were found, definitely had access to computers used by Hochmuth for viewing. Use of the computers for viewing would have a record. There are various ways to supervise and protect a computer network against compromise, abuse, and spamming. Why has no one been fired?

The think (sic) that has really bothered me about his reporting of this story on his blog is the glee he has in telling the tale. To him, apparently, this is is not a tragic story involving real people and real sins; this is something to celebrate because it "confirms" his point about the WELS. There is no Christian concern for those involved. There is not even any human concern. There is only joy and revelry that happened so that he can have some vehicle to make his point about UOJ. In the words of Buzz Lightyear, he is a sad, strange, little man and he has my pity.

GJ - Buzz Lightyear is your muse? That is alarming. As before, the UOJ law-mongers have nothing to offer but condemnation. They read minds and judge motives. The graphic below was designed by an active WELS member disgusted with this scandal.
Jackson just did another weird diatribe about the make-believe crimes of the WELS. Let's say that half to stuff he says isn't just made up (I've searched for confirmation of a lot of his claims, and it never seems to check out). Isn't human nature always the same across the ages? Isn't the Church always infected with sin?
The title of the blog is telling "the glory has departed." What glory? The "good old days" were never around. People in the old days just covered things up better! Jackson endlessly complains about human nature being human nature. How can anyone who believes in the doctrine of original sin be surprised by human wickedness. All you can do is try to restrain the effects of sin- something it seems to me the WELS has done in this case.
Lastly, what's this about?:
"WELS still denies the fact that two men murdered their wives."
I can't find any press release denying this (hence they never officially have denied this, it appears)- neither can I find any news stories on the internet that talks about this.
Whenever he's challenged, he says he has his "sources"- sorry if I'm a little skeptical! Am I supposed to just take his word for it?
Ok, so you're obviously filled with psychotic rage on a daily basis, you have a grudge against the WELS, and none of the charges you make against the leadership can be verified. But I'll just take your word for it! Right....

GJ - Please fill us in about what has not been proven, linked, quoted, etc. In fact, your deceit is unproven, unsupported. A WELS pastor said, "Everything I have checked, whenever the information was available, has proven to be true."
Your ignorance of the Bible and Lutheran doctrine is appalling. The glory is the peculiar glory of the Means of Grace. Ichabod is a Biblical term, not one based on nostalgia about one particular sect.
Psychotic rage is a good description of Tim Glende and Company. He posted captioned photos of WELS members eating cat feces from a toilet, and he named those people. Several of us saved those photos for evidence. That blog disappeared, but nothing really vanishes from the Net.
Books created through Bethany Lutheran Church have gone all over the world, hundreds of them given away. NPH has a friendly relationship with me. I review NPH books and the official WELS publishing house sells Catholic, Lutheran, Protestant.
We are all waiting to see what Glende and Ski have contributed, not including hundreds of sermons they have stolen--without credit--from Craig Groeschel.
Covering up and trivializing this heinous crime is the clearest possible proof of the cruelty, self-centeredness, and blindness of WELS.

Once again, it is time to put the flak jackets back on, fellow Ichabodians. We are right above the target and drawing fire from the enemy. The head out of the gutter comment is a cheap shot. The synod minders will always carry water for the crowd that they run with.
