Whenever someone brings up an unpleasant fact about WELS, the proper response is, "Where did you hear that?"

If the answer is "Ichabod," then a long, ignorant, insult-filled tirade follows. Many have regaled me with the details, from various parts of the country. The facts do not matter, since the idea is to make this blog radioactive and all information equally toxic.



Verbatim copies of news stories are attacked if I mark the key points in boldface.

The facts about WELS are appalling. While WELS pastors brag privately about how crude they are, they hate for the public to see through their sanctimonious posturing. They honor the drunks among them and give them honors, then support the alcoholics who get themselves into trouble.

Laity are not too impressed when their pastor or DP or worship professor gets a DUI and perhaps a car wreck in the process. One man had to go pull his mission pastor out of a bar.
