WELS Shunning Is Worth Some Commentary

When these lupines warn others about wolves,
do not drink coffee near the keyboard.


bruce-church (https://bruce-church.myopenid.com/) has left a new comment on your post "Anonymous Defender Is Nauseated":

This is an example of WELS shunning, really. The WELS makes life so hard on their critics, or people who sin, that usually they leave even though they are supposedly forgiven. Even when they don't leave, they are assumed to have left, as may be the case of Hochmuth. Anyway, Nauseated says that since Hochmuth is no longer an employee, that no one ought to mention his name anymore. It reminds me of the Jews who say, "May his named be blotted out [from collective memory]":

Nauseated said: "Hochmuth is no longer a WELS employee so it is not a WELS issue."

GJ - One WELS layman said, "Even the guys I work with are disgusted by ministers fooling around. And those guys are no angels themselves. Unfaithful clergy really get discussed."

Here is a WELS Evangelism program - sleep with your wife, pastors, instead of your members.
