Lutherans Should Drop Their Offensive Name

Today we are reading that the University of Texas is adhering to the mob mentality and tearing down any Confederate statues.

White supremacy is BAD.  So is black supremacy in groups like Black Panthers.  So is Muslim supremacy in Islam!

The bottom line is that whites don't have a corner on the "Hate" market.  Hatred is a human condition and his been with us since Cain killed Abel.

I got an email today from a Lutheran who was telling me how pleased he was that his pastor gave a shout down to white supremacy from the pulpit in her Sunday sermon yesterday.

Well I wish she hadn't have stopped there!  Maybe she should have given a shout down to the name sake of her church, Martin Luther?

You see Luther wrote some awful things about the Jews.  Luther was also the father on REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY which means that the way he saw things the promises that God made to the Jews had been revoked and placed on the Christians instead!!

Of course, that's a lie from the pit of hell....but sadly many mainline denominations preach and teach it.

“Set fire to their synagogues or schools,” Martin Luther recommended in On the Jews and Their Lies. Jewish houses should “be razed and destroyed,” and Jewish “prayer books and Talmudic writings, in which such idolatry, lies, cursing, and blasphemy are taught, [should] be taken from them.” In addition, “their rabbis [should] be forbidden to teach on pain of loss of life and limb.” Still, this wasn’t enough.

Luther also urged that “safe-conduct on the highways be abolished completely for the Jews,” and that “all cash and treasure of silver and gold be taken from them.” What Jews could do was to have “a flail, an ax, a hoe, a spade” put into their hands so “young, strong Jews and Jewesses” could “earn their bread in the sweat of their brow.”

These fierce comments have puzzled and embarrassed Christians who otherwise admire the Reformer. And they have led to charges that Luther was “one of the ‘church fathers’ of anti-Semitism.” More seriously, Luther’s attacks have been seen as paving the way for Hitler.

It seemed to him that God had deserted the Jews, leaving them to wander homeless without a land or temple of their own. And if this was God’s attitude, then one might with good conscience ignore the Jews. Why would God desert his own people if he did not despair of them? He had rejected them and turned his attention to the “new Israel,” the Christian church. Luther thus accepted the existing notion that the promise given to Jews was now transferred to Christians.

So now that it can be proven beyond a doubt that Luther said some awful things against the Jews, I hope that tolerant Lutherans everywhere will consider tearing down all statues and picture of Martin Luther, removing all signs from the yards and buildings with ANY reference to Luther in their names and apologizing to any Jewish Synagogues in their area whose members have been forced to drive by their Lutheran signs all over America.

You see friends, if we start requiring that all men be PERFECT before we can have any school, street, city, Army Fort, lake or park named in their honor....we will have NO MEN in which we can look up to.  There will be NO STATUES of anyone ever!!

We better get ready to rename Washington state and our capital...because George Washington was a slave owner.  We also better get ready to drop him, Jefferson and Jackson from all of our currency bills.  The army better get ready to change the name of Fort Lee and Fort Jackson too.

It never ends.

What a stupid waste of time.

But that's what pleases the leftists today.
