	Where is the Protestant religion practiced most?
		Perhaps it would be better to divide Lutheranism into two denominations, one that is "confessional Lutheran" and the other that is "nominally Lutheran." Some call themselves Lutheran deny the inerrancy of Scripture and some are actually part of the Jesus Seminar, which denies that Jesus is God.
		Lutherans traditionally have insisted that every component of the Doctrine of God, every teaching found in Scripture must be held in agreement as a prerequisite to fellowship.
		The most liberal is the Lutheran Word Federation (claims over 65 million adherants, but it is declining), lead by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, which allows members to deny the inerrancy of Scripture, that Jesus is God, and that Jesus rose from the dead.
