Very  much so, also also Jewish Christian relations. He and I talked about  
this.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
 
Some years back there was a lesbian candidate for ordination by the ELCA,  
and at
that time their local bishop refused to ordain her.  Instead, the  Lutheran 
Bishop of
Stockholm ordained her at the Lutheran high church ("Solemn High Masses"  on
Sundays and feastdays) in Saint Paul, MNl (Redeemer).
 
I would suspect that the viewpoint and policy of the ELCA there has  
subsequently
been liberalized.
