My comments to Thrivent as requested by the Reporter that I send a message to Thrivent.

I am a LCMS lifetime member. I am also a lifetime member of AAL and now Thrivent. I am opposed to President Harrison of LCMS speaking for me or for Thrivent. His comments do not speak for me or for any Christian who is concerned about low-income woman not receiving help from Planned Parenthood. Jesus would be concerned with the LCMS claiming to speak for HIM against the poor. Therefore I request that Thrivent stand up to this unchristian threat from LCMS and act similar to the Pope who has said that we should stop these fights and focus on helping the poor and those in need of help. I am greatly embarrassed about President Harrison's jump in logic by asking for the church to ignore poor woman in some misguided purity Gospel.
Bottom line stand up to this threat by following the Bible in Matthew 25: 34-46 and continue to support the poor and needy woman and their need for health care.
