*d-day: September 28th, 2007 - Conservatives Will Take The Hill*
Disclaimer: This is just my opinion, and I have no insider information.
On September 28th, 2007, resolution four will go down in flames. Conservatives will win the battle in convincing fashion and tighten their hold on the org.
In the days leading up to this vote, and those immediately following, stories of lib/mod defections will become commonplace. They see the handwriting on the wall.
wouldnt be surprised at all, the head in the sand crowd has ruled for many years my brother, dt
thats quite a slam on many pioneer preachers who have poured their lives into building what we currently have now.... its also unfair to say that anyone who opposes TV has their "head in the sand"....

I think it would be more accurate to say these men you speak of had a part in building what we have now. lets not forget that the UPCI was also helped to be what it is by famlies like the Yadons.

most certainly, but to say that the leadership that "has ruled for many years" had their "head in the sand" because they voted to stand against TV is quite a bold statement....
Daniel perhaps made the most insightful comment on this thread thus far.... the internet has really pushed the envelope so-to-speak, especially with the two technologies of TV & Internet already beginning to blend together.... add cell-phones with 3G technology to that list as well for that matter; a person can stream TV to their phone now days.... should we get rid of them too???

that is the whole point we live in the information age, get used to it, and dont try to act like if we ignore it , it will dissappear, i was at gc when bro tenny took the mike and said dont worry about tv , the telephone had caused more trouble than any thing he had seen, the whole place laughed, it was true, then, lol,dt

that is your opinion, i view it as practical, when you have been in the church for almost 40 years like i have, you will see things differently maybe and no one has more respect for the pioneers than me, i knew a lot of them and my grandfather was one of them, i think like he did, dt
