Sad but true. Not that there are pro-life ELCA, of course... I pray every day for MORE ELCA Lutherans to take a more Godly view of life issues, and for those that already acknowledge God's will for life to remain strong. Unfortunately, the LCMS is hardly free from pro-abortion forces. In fact, I don't know if I'd be comfortable suggesting that the "split" is any different within our beloved Synod than it is in secular culture.
