You guys ever run into these folks...

We send our daughter to a Missouri Synod School and -- even though they're a lot more conservative than we are -- they have been really great.  So far, so good.  But then, someone there told me that, as conservative as the MoSyn was, the Wisconsin Synod regarded them as liberal heretics!  Fascinating.

I was wondering if you had any experience with them, since most of their churches are in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and so forth.

My parents attend a Missouri Synod church.  While I haven't been to church in years, I do remember that most Lutherans consider them absurdly conservative, even by LCMS standards...and, you have to remember, LCMS nearly had a schism over whether or not praying with people from other religions is a sin.

Other Christian denominations, actually.  But I was asking about the Wisconsin Synod, who ostensibly make the MoSyns look liberal...
