| There is a long-standing tradition of male cheerleaders in sports, but they did not try to act like girls. At least the Martin Luther College (WELS) men are not groping each other as part oftheir amusing routine. They save that for Tiefel's seminary choir. |
ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.

Another Girly Girly Photo from the WELS Students - Yes, They Brag about This
Because the Drunks Run WELS - That Is Why.
WELS Documented Blog

| What kind of future teachers and ministers create girly girly songs and upload them to YouTube? |
 |
| Answer - the same kind that demand the freshmen boys simulate anal sex with this statue. Perverted? Sadistic? Infantile? Your future leaders, WELS. Why wouldn't the administration be called to account for allowing this to continue? These are the questions that should be asked and discussed in blogs like this. |

The sodomite rituals at Martin Luther College, WELS,
and Wisconsin Luther College
have no effect on its graduates.
Church and Change does not exist in WELS
and Mark Jeske is not in charge of it.
To suggest otherwise is a slap in the face of Holy Mother WELS.- GJ - I do not write for WELS Documented or comment there. I do not write for the WELS Discussions on Facebook, but look at those who do! Some are blatant false teachers, ignorant louts, and others in need of counseling.
Everyone who disagrees with the errors of the Synodical Conference is bitter, jealous, mean-spirited, lazy, crazy, unloving, and in violation of the Eighth Commandment and Matthew 18. - But don't you wonder about a seminary where prospective students are groped by the seminarians? where this groping is a tradition in the seminary choir? where they have a tradition of nude pile-ons? where two men meet in the mattress room, get caught, but are ordained and married anyway?
Straw Bale Gardening and More

Straw Bale Gardening
Straw Bale gardening meets my two criteria for outside projects. One - is it less work for the same results (as Maynard G. Krebs would ask)? Two - is it based on Creation principles or the German chemical industry?
Here are some additional links:
How to build a straw bale garden.
How to condition and plant a straw bale garden.
No dig - vegetable garden.
That should be enough information. Straw is composed of the stems of wheat, and it is probably weed free. Straw will decompose and feed the plants.
Simple steps:
- Buy some bales for about $6 each at a hardware or farm store.
- Put newspapers beneath them to suppress grass and other weeds that might grow into the bales.
- Newspapers are great sponges for holding water, and they feed earthworms and soil creatures.
- Place the bales narrow side up, where the side has that soda straw look.
- Water the bales first, then wait two weeks for decomposition heat to fade away.
Benefits of straw bales:
- They create a raised bed garden without a ton of building, lifting, and soil moving.
- Bales let potatoes grow without being caked with clingy clay soil or any soil.
- Straw keeps strawberries off the ground and away from hungry ants.
- Plants can be grown free of inorganic fertilizer, using the straw as compost.
Any raised area for gardening (even a little hill) will need more water, but it will also be drained better. I use the finger test - is growing medium damp like a diaper? That is good. Roots will grow down, looking for water, and the leaves will give away their need for water. Soaker hoses are good for straw bales, but do not put the bales against wood, where the rotting of wood will be promoted.
Yesterday's Follies
Our helper came by to plant peas and other delights. I pointed out our fall project--hardy bulbs--was already paying off. The first daffodil plant stuck the tip of one leaf above the soil level. I expect giant aliums, tulips, and crown imperials.
We planted another large packet of edible pod pea seeds, in the mulch along the fence. below the aerial aqueduct. I watered them, to promote early growth and give the starlings a free shower. When I went inside, the starlings were having a riot, eating sunflower seed, snacking on suet, and bathing.
We joked about how sick of peas we would be at the end of the season, just in time for growing beans and getting sick of them. But I will also learn which neighbors really like fresh peas and beans.
We tried to string up the newest solar lights, which are easily put in a bush (small string) or horizontally along a fence (long string). I wanted to go up the dead tree, which did not go well. The string broke, but it can be rewired.
We began a new row in the corn patch, to grow some things before the corn is planted. I had beets, lettuce, and some other cool weather crops, so we tried that out.
Burpee said I could order, free shipping, any amount, so I decided order for more carrots. The server jammed and gave me an error message, so I started over. I ended up with two thank-you emails for two orders. The amount of seed cannot be disclosed here, but I will be sharing seeds with our helper, who is starting his own garden with his children and wife. OK, my new order amounted to 9,000 seeds. Paul said "sow in abundance, reap in abundance."
I plan on putting carrots along the margin of many other patches, such as long the fence, among the peas, and anywhere else.
When the last of winter is over, at the end of February, we will have spinach growing merrily and garlic bulbs getting ready to harvest. Lots and lots of garlic bulbs.
March is also when I will plant the new roses and prune the old ones. That will be great fun, because no other plant produces so much in such a short time. No one gets sick of roses, except professional gardeners. I heard one moan and complain about how much he hated them. He meant the scratches and pruning and bad stuff. Roses are not bushes full of thorns. They are thorn bushes that bloom with beautiful, fragrant flowers.

I don't know where you gleaned bitterness from anything I wrote in that comment. I think you could probably catch some pity, some sadness, some regret over the failure of campus leadership, but those surely aren't reactions akin to bitterness. Just a viewpoint that should be as valid as yours. I suppose it is easier to place someone under a label in order to dismiss them than it is to actually listen to what they say. I actually agree with most of the points you made in your post, which I guess means you're bitter to a certain extent too?
The drinking soirees that happen off the MLC campus such as pig roast or whatever COS came up with were a problem when I was there. If they have continued, they are still a problem. There is no defense for their existing in the first place other than tradition. While I was a student there, a protest of sorts did happen. And the administration's solution was...that the COS organizers couldn't put posters up for the COS events in the dorms. That's it. No outright ban or condemnation or dismissal of those sin encouraging events. And even then the posters were snuck into the inside doors of the toilet stalls so one couldn't even go to the bathroom in peace without being inundated with colorful drawings involving some badly arranged words that were puns on COS or SPAM or FRAT that I'm sure someone thought was clever but as they probably drank a lot, the humor discernment level was low.
The faculty could have killed it but they didn't. The VP could have destroyed it but it didn't happen. Why?
This isn't sensationalism, this is sad fact. During my 5 years on that campus, there were 5 years of COS parties and pig roasts. I'm sure that in the intervening almost 20 years, they have continued to exist in some form or other. Now, did every single student go to these events, become absolutely plastered, and have many evenings of sin-filled regrets? No, of course not. There are many fine called workers who were in my class. Many fine teachers and pastors emerged. Truly the Lord's kingdom has been enhanced by these souls behind the pulpit and in front of the classroom. After all, they attended that school for the right reasons: learn the languages, learn how to manage a classroom, learn how to teach a child how to read, stay focused on Christ and His Word. As I'll paraphrase from my other comment: you're not there to sow wild oats and develop cirrhosis, you're there to get a Christian ministerial education.
However, why would a Christian ministerial college not eliminate something like COS? Something that has traditions based upon drunkenness and assorted sins that follow along with it? Why wouldn't the administration be called to account for allowing this to continue? These are the questions that should be asked and discussed in blogs like this.
