Lutherans Recognize Reality

By Sniffles

Yay for the Lutherans! Leaders of the Protestant denomination in the U.S. voted today to allow non-celibate homosexuals to serve as their ministers. It was hardly close: the winning side clocked in at 68 percent.

Of course, while we cats nod approvingly at this development, we realize at the same time that it's a bit of an eye roll. Good gracious, people, it's 2009. If the founder of your sect had his moment of epiphany in the water closet, if you've been ordaining women and divorced folks for years, what took you so long?

Well, never mind. We won't look at gift horse in the mouth. And Lutherans, if this decision serves to, um, "flush" the homophobes among you out of the Church, then consider yourselves well and truly plumbed.
