You can not get to Heaven by Lutefisk alone.

As we drove by a Lutheran church, busy with what seemed to be an event of some sort on a Saturday afternoon, we started cracking classic “Looteran” jokes.
At some point, it inevitably segued to Lutefisk, possibly due to the same-sounding word and the fact that more than one North Dakota church (many of which are Lutheran) have had a lutefisk feed.
“The problem with lutefisk, as if there was only one problem, is that it’s a works-based religion,” I said.
