The branch I belong to is one of the conservative ones--LCMS. They don't ordain women, are ambivalent at best on the issue of sexual orientation, and they get caught up in all kinds of 'legalistic' shit like having a hissy fit if a minister participates in a service with ministers of other faiths. I'm thinking of changing to ELCA, the more liberal branch of the Lutheran church, though my brother, who is an ordained LCMS minister might disinherit me. ^_~
