View submission: Musk and Flynn targeting Lutheran Social Services of Central Ohio funding.
Lutheranism is Protestant though. It’s one of the oldest. It’s just not as big as other branches of Protestantism in the US.

It’s literally THE oldest. Martin Luther was a catholic priest who “protested” and nailed his arguments against corruptions of the church to the church’s door. After him, in terms of Protestant denominations, was Henry VIII, who broke away from the Catholic Church so that he could get divorced, and ended up starting the Church of England, which became the Episcopal Church in America. Methodists and Presbyterians emerged as splinter groups from the Church of England and also made their way here.

Oh. Sorry, I don't really know a lot about the different religions.
