Help wanted: vicar who believes in God
Mejdal Church in Viborg, Jutland, has become the first church to explictly state that it is hiring a vicar who Denmark who is a ‘believer’. In its current job posting, the church insisted that applicants must believe in God. Vicars' association Præsteforeningen criticised the wording of the announcement, asking “who can decide if a person has the correct beliefs"? The Mejdal Parish Council indicated that an infamous case from 2003 in which Rev Thorkild Grosbøll said he did not believe in an all-powerful God, motivated them to require a vicar who believes in a supreme being. – Kristeligt Dagblad
