Gay pastor no longer on Lutheran roster

The gay pastor of Atlanta's oldest Lutheran church has been removed from his denomination's clergy roster. But the Reverend Bradley Schmeling says he won’t leave the pulpit. Schmeling says "The congregation issued a call to me in 2000 and as far as we are concerned, that hasn't changed." His decision to stay could open the 350-member congregation to disciplinary action by church authorities.
