WELS church communications director, and advisor to the WELS Synodical Council and Conference of Presidents, Joel Hochmuth, [since removed from linked page], has been arrested on child porn charges, WISN reported.
This morning the WELS church scrubbed Hochmuth's interview with prominent WELS member, U.S. candidate Mark Neumann [and member of the WELS Kingdom Workers national Board of Directors (Spring 2011 Newsletter; p.5),] from the WELS site, where the two discussed the "Good Lord," "Christian principles," "abortion," and God's plans for Neumann in politics.
The interview page now reads: "You do not have sufficient privileges to view the requested page. If your user account has access to this page, please log in." [Now replaced with different video.]
This message began appearing after the piece, WELS—Mark Neumann's Church—Comm Director Arrested on Child Porn Charges, was posted here this morning.
The claim of "sufficient privileges" contradicts the site's Technological page reading: "Sign In is not required for http://www.wels.net/, ... ."
WELS Board member, Neumann and whole of WELS leadership should condemn Hochmuth and Neumann should use his considerable influence with his church to ax this guy.
WELS should stop covering up, and start speaking up.
Do what Joe Paterno refused to do.
I don't care if it's Penn State football, the Catholic Church or WELS, preying on children is flat-out wrong, and silence is acceptance.
