| LSTC is doubtless the ugliest seminary ever. The first chapel there was designed as a concrete bowl, hated by everyone. |
ALPB Online Discussion Group must have spit out their Ovaltine in disgust when people began commenting on the U. of Chicago buying a two-seminary campus for their own use, allowing LSTC to lease back some space for a short time. LSTC loves South Chicago, adjacent to the U. of Chicago campus and urban decay. The open arms initial building (I am not kidding) was closed off by McCormick Calvinist Seminary, making the campus a little bit safer.
I saw no one reporting on it anywhere, except for the three entities releasing identical releases, just in time for Mother's Day. I posted the link in a sincere effort to reveal the glad tidings to the world. The Jurassic Lutherans on the board were shell-shocked that I had the information first. Was ELCA Presiding Bishop Liz Eaton steamed? I think so.
Perhaps my copy and paste of the LSTC radicalism posts made the old ALPB gents not wanting to kick the log over and see what is underneath.
My borrowed wisdom on these matters holds true:
- If they agree, there is nothing new being said.
- If they rant and rage, some progress is being made.
- If the response is utter silence, the bulls-eye was hit, and they will not respond, lest more people find out the truth.
When I brought up Luther's Bible and the KJV, after seeing the AV ignored in their pious discussions, Solzenburg's co-pastor in Columbus asked if The Forum needed to be a "safe place." That is the code for "Shut down the topic." The discussion became quieter than an underwater sea adventure.

| Ye Olde Maywood Seminary - these plus five other seminaries merged (more or less) to create LSTC, now being chewed up and spit out by John D. Rockefeller's U. of Chicago. I wrote about the looming failure four years ago - linked here. |
