Lutherans Recommend Tolerance on Gay Policy
The New York Times (free registration required) reports that ...'A task force of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America recommended yesterday that it retain its policy against blessing same-sex unions and ordaining gays, but suggested that sanctions could be avoided for pastors and congregations that chose to do so.
'The sixth-largest Christian denomination, with five million members in the United States and Caribbean, the Lutheran Church is attempting to resolve what the task force called a "deep, pervasive" disagreement about the role and treatment of gay men and lesbians.'
