“Lutheran” tax & immigration & social services fraud
To be “Lutheran” is to confess Martin Luther’s 95 theses and oppose the presumed authority of the pope of the Roman Catholic Church.
There is no central earthly authority to dictate whether charitable organizations or other overly profitable organizations claiming to be charitable are allowed to call themselves “Lutheran” or not. That is up the human individuals who run those organzations and their personal relationship with God, something which is something highly emphasized in Lutheran faith.

South Dakota and Nebraska both lie entirely north of the Mason–Dixon line of course, but let’s just for the sake of argument put a heavy Southern drawl on the coercive and involuntary behavioral health “services” being offered by so many obnoxiously litigious Lutheran-themed or Lutheran-named social services organizations state by state and county by county. Such involuntary servitude for mass-marketed social services and not as a punishment for crimes whereof the individuals have been duly convicted, is absolutely abolished under the 13th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, and this at a cost of Civil War, massive bloodshed and destruction of half the country!

To think that over two hundred years of legal malpractice and pseudo-medical quackery in the state and local courts of the United States should have to be put to an end in a single night in thus and such a manner!
