Votes happened, and essentially there is now the possibility of someone in a same-sex monogamous relationship to be a pastor. It's up to the discretion of that synod's bishop and/or the congregation, but it is a possibility if either party is willing.

Already, many of my pastor friends are talking about leaving the Lutheran church. It's going to be an interesting time.


Isn't there a really conservative group of Lutherans--the Missouri Synod? Or am I confusing denominations? Methodists are going through this as well, as I'm sure you know. And I bet there are more conservative Methodist congregations than Lutheran ones.

I have to wake up at 7:30 tomorrow. Moving is awful.

I hope to be at the Jersey shore by 4 tomorrow. Go swim in the hurricane for a bit, then watch Happ take a dump on the Mets while Gary, Keith and Ron fellate us and I get drunk with my brother. Sounds like a plan.

Yep, the conservative group is LCMS. They don't ordain women.

My suspicion is another conservative group will spring up from this, which will ordain women but essentially be marked by their stance on same-sex unions.

It's the best.

Dear everyone else, get a team in England to root for. Or hate. It gives one a purpose on Saturday and Sunday mornings from late August to May. (Unless you have kids or something to distract you from fake life.)

Mancs are on ESPN2 tomorrow at 10. Root against them. They're more evil than the Yanks and Sawx put together.

It's hard arguing against three people when you're drunk and tired.

I'm not saying this is my perspective. Vox has said the same thing that you're saying, about girls he goes to school with.

I think most people are screwed up about relationships.

if the rumors are true, looks like I'm waiting for the four horsemen. Maybe I'll drink mint juleps like at the Kentucky Derby.

The Whitesnake video for Is This Love was just on one of the VH1 stations. Tawney Kitaen's legs were just downright criminal. You couldn't draw it up any better

I seem to remember a Seinfeld episode where George wears a wedding band to attract women.
