Dismantle the Whole Thing?
Let's just pretend that a very large number of ministers leave the org after the vote this fall. Let's say 20% either way. How do you think that will affect the org? If libs leave, will the org become even more conservative? If cons leave, will the org become liberal?
Or will things continue as they are, even after a split? Will an exodus by the most extreme fringe fix the current friction? Are we fooling ourselves here? Is the use of tv really the only major issue that divides us?
It has been said that a prominent UPC elder recently stated that it "is time to dismantle the whole thing, and start all over again". Is it?
I can't imagine that things are really that bad. Don't you think this is just a momentary blip in the history of the movement?
