Lutherans Back selective conscientious objection to war
The Lutheran Church in America at its Atlanta convention became the first major Protestant body to back selective objection to a specific war. The measure, approved 426 to 146 with seven abstentions, says objectors act in line with Lutheran teaching and must be willing to face civil or criminal penalties. It also urges exemption from military duty for conscientious objectors and equal legal treatment, while noting exemptions are granted in the civil good and may be revoked in public order danger.
