Lutheran Church becomes first major US Christian faith to elect a transgender bishop

Please note that this is the 'Evangelical' Lutheran church and the Sierra Pacific Synod, the liberal extremists of the Lutheran church. Still.....

Rev Megan Rohrer was elected bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Sierra Pacific synod on Saturday, becoming the first transgender person to serve as bishop in the denomination or in any of the major Christian faiths in the US.
Rohrer, pastor of Grace Lutheran Church in San Francisco and community chaplain coordinator for the San Francisco Police Department, was the first transgender person to be ordained in the ELCA in 2006 and the first to serve as a pastor when called to Grace Lutheran in 2014.
Well known for advocating for LGBTQ rights in street activism, preaching and writing, Rohrer, 41, who uses the pronouns they and them, is also recognized for their work with the homeless.
Sadly, going to church is becoming seriously dangerous to one's morals.

Martin Luther says, "you've got it all wrong"

Missouri Synod is the only way to go.
Why, oh why, do “liberal” denominations still exist under the guise of “churches”?
Call it a civic group and move on already!

Sadly, the Lutheran church closest to us belongs to the Missouri Synod but the pastor is all over BLM and social justice these days.

Literally no idea. The article is using plural pronouns? Can we just start using XX / XY?

Megan has always found themself walking alongside in solidarity with, and to provide safety for, those lifting their voices for justice.
theologically abhorrent.

Pretty sure the Holy Spirit will honor their decision for Him not to be affiliated with their churches.

That is not a Christian church.

Your next step is to Google some Bible verses for you to cherry pick and argue against Christians with.
