Does Swedish Lutheran know that Swedish Lutheranism is about as lively as cream cheese and about as vibrantly diverse? That barely 2% of Sweden's population bothers with church? How pitiful do you have to be to take an interest in something so riduculous? You're both dwingling away to nothing; you and the Missouri Synod shouting about the flaming community is proof that most people will believe anything they want to if it makes them feel better.
Why are there so many gay clergy, even in churches that allow their clergy to marry (and re-marry after death of a spouse or divorce)? Is is the chance to wear drag as their uniform?
For a scientific view of tornadoes, check out the YouTube video "Lutherans, Tornadoes, and Gays! Oh my!" by ProfMTH. For a mainstream Lutheran view of the inclusion of gay people in the church, look at "Homosexuality and the ELCA Lutheran" and "It Gets Better: Bishop Mark Hanson, ELCA." The two men in the latter two videos display the true spirit of Christianity.
The only people that I believe should be outed are those who are closeted and spreading hatred against gays. This man qualifies. If he had grown up in a church that was fully accepting of its gay members, as the ELCA is now, he would never have had to fall into this dishonesty and deception. This is all the more reason that all Christian churches should abandon their anti-gay bigotry and embrace gay members, gay clergy and gay marriage.
Homophobe hypocrite like Ted Haggard you mean. Hiding that he was gay or in a gay group because he was questioning his own sexuality. Me thinks he does protest too much. Those that scream the loudest are mostly hiding their sexuality or in denial. Now I know what great great great great great great grandpa Martin Luther meant when he said "this world with devils filling the land, threatening to devour us!" Does this man know God's Kingdom is forever?

@Manzanita859 Again no. I don't see sex toys everywhere I look. I've tried to be subtle and therefor some may have missed my point. The point being: that he gives the appearance of being one way when in reality he is quite different. He might look like a straight laced pastor but...he is just a laced pastor. The sad thing is that there is nothing wrong with being/acting gay, but because of his bigotry he ends up a hypocrite.
