Abstract

Runge, David A. | March 10, 1956 issue

add to cart   close window

The trials in Milwaukee are over, with two of the three young pastors involved officially unfrocked. The dispute goes on, however, and is not likely to be settled soon. Basically it involves the question of a fundamentalist versus modernist interpretation of the Bible. The trials merely heaped new faggots on this long-burning issue in Christendom. Defendants at that trials were three Lutheran ministers, pastors of Milwaukee suburban churches. Each was tried by a separate jury of the North-western synod of the United Lutheran Church in America.
