although, from the point of view of someone who thinks that sometimes you have to stir shit up before change happens, i have to say that i love the picture with the headline. because you know that there were some people there who were just that happy and relieved about the decision to reject same gender marriage.

ha-- half an hour after i captured this, it's now a different picture online.

Gay ministers will be allowed to lead parishes, representatives of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) voted today in Minneapolis.

for those of you not familiar with the lutheran church in its many weirdo varieties, the elca is the "mainstream" lutheran church. (there are also the missouri synod and the wisconsin synod, aka six miles to right of attila the hun and six miles farther right than that. as well as many smaller sects.)

i've been waiting for them to do this for twenty years, so i'm not in line to give them a cookie. but i am happy they've done this.
