At the GC business meeting, they should have everyone that will leave if the vote doesn't go their way to stand up.

All of those ministers that are standing should then be dismissed, and then the vote taken by those who have a true passion for the organization.

Why should those with one foot out of the door be able to determine the direction of organization?
I've been thinking about this comment over the last few days, and I have a couple of other suggestions.

How about asking for everyone who has a TV in their home to stand, and dismissing them? If they are not going to abide by the manual now, they should have no say so in deciding on changes within that manual.

Or, how about asking for everyone who does not preach the stand stated in the Articles of Faith (remember that they SAY they do when they sign the Affirmation Statement) to stand, and dismissing them?

I have no doubt the resolution would go down to a RESOUNDING defeat if either of these options were employed. Does anyone think I should make a motion to do either of these? Does anyone think either motion would pass?



Oh, well, it's all academic. Que sera, sera.
