Lance Armstrong, Manti Te'o, Walther, and the Synodical Confidence Men Today


Lance Armstrong has admitted to doping as a bike racer.

Manti Te'o and Notre Dame have been lying about the invisible girlfriend, one that he met after a game (but never met), his future bride (according to his father), and the love of his life (whose funeral and grave he never visited). She was hurt in a car accident and died of leukemia the same day his real grandmother died.

Many are assuming the invented girl was a beard, to explain Manti's lack of interest in the female groupies surrounding athletes. The trouble with faked emails and tweets is our ability to track them to the source. 



"We spoke on the phone every night." At 2.40
"Hey, hon. Skip my funeral if you have a game.But get the game ball. Thanks."

Notre Shame is the new moniker being attached to the PR-driven university. Watch the lies unravel in the next week. A guy was generating these contacts, and there are family/Mormon connections.

Lax news reporters are listed here.

Mrs. I aked, "They couldn't get a girl to play the role?"

Speaking of which.

Walther did not want anyone to write an early history of the LCMS. Later, when Ludwig Fuerbringer had a chance to regale his audience with stories he heard from his mum and his auntie, he wrote, "I wish I would have asked more." Uh-huh.

When Walther's brother died, Ludwig's father married the widow, giving birth to Ludwig (of course) and making CFW the uncle of this  pioneering boy. There are stories we hear and stories we cannot repeat. 

The early Missouri stories are typical of abusive cult behavior. Those who keep the secrets and tell the lies are rewarded. Those who tell the truth are slimed. Forster, the author of Zion on the Mississippi, who was overly sensitive about telling the whole truth, is still run down as a failed LCMS pastor. The book remains the standard early history of the sect. It is quite a detailed history, a goldmine of quotations, facts, statistics, and anecdotes.

When Phil Stephan published a collection of historical facts about Martin Stephan and his descendants, the LCMS loyalists immediately piled on him for NOT being a professional historian. By the way, every historical source has factual inconsistencies and ambiguities. The official archives of the LCA had my dissertation subject dying in the wrong city and state. The archivist was not fired and his records were not shredded or burned.

Cults shred and burn the facts, then invent stories to make every figure they like into a saint.

Breitbart - great details about the lies.

St. Te'o of Hawaii was invented as a way to grab the Heisman for a guy who was later streamrolled by Alabama. Character is one requirement for the award, so Notre Dame leveraged the dying girlfriend story. 

"What can you say about a twenty-five-year-old girl who died? That she was beautiful and brilliant? That she loved Mozart and Bach, the Beatles, and me?" [Love Story]

Sob. Burying head in arms, wearing typical Harvard sweater.

St. Marvin of Schwan was the best, most honorable, most generous  guy who ever lived, truly a man of great character. 

St. Walther of Pietism was the man who rode in on a white charger and rid the colony of the ee-vul Martin Stephan, but he did so in a Biblical way. He either did or did not violate the seal of the confessional. No matter. Martin Stephan was ee-vul and had a lot of gold and land and books. As bad as the bishop was, not that Walther ever signed the bishop thingie, Walther gave the bishop three options. That was big of Walther, because the bishop was ee-vul. Everything the group did was wonderful, but it cannot be discussed because Walther said not to.

If you ever question a syllable from the Great Walther, you yourself are ee-vul.

If you question Holy Mother WELS, you are also ee-vul. You do not have to believe everything Walther said, because he was Missouri Synod. But you do have to follow everything WELS says, as long as it comes from the Church and Changers. 

If you are ELS, you can pretend to be better than Missouri or WELS. No matter. You are too small to matter. But if you question WELS, you are ee-vul.

Chase Bank Disciplines Their CEO
The CEO of Chase just had his salary cut in half for losing $6 billion. He has to get by on $1 million a month for the new year. 

How much does your SP make? How about the staff? You do not get to know, because you are ee-vul just for wondering.


"He was caught before and received counseling,
but we didn't know.
He had hundreds of files at headquarters,
but we didn't know.
And we assured him of his forgiveness."

WELS Party in the MLC video, copying Party in the Fire Island Pines:
"We didn't know we were plagiarizing a gay video.
We forgive that blogger for reacting against our innocent gaity."
