The Lutheran Option

I had not noticed a lot of support by laypersons in the LCMS for views other than YEC. But I only visited some churches without joining and didn’t really get to know anyone that well and I used to peruse some blogs and websites. Any pastor I asked, it was YEC all the way.

Except 40% of their congregation is theistic evolution. That is the intriguing thing about Lutheranism.

@Intjer

Where do you get 40%? I find that rather surprising.

I always misremember this. It is actually 50% of LCMS, not 40%.
