There are so many other big and real issues we should be dealing with in the church, and we let ourselves get hung up and distracted by this one stupid issue.

IMO

(Wait, I'm indentifying with the teenagers, does that make me immature?? Some would say yes, I'm sure! LOL!)

Do you think you're immature??? I think I suffer from a Peter Pan syndrome ... but who cares?

The younger generation thankfully hasn't been polluted yet w/ the politics.

Because their [ABN's] webcasting service is substandard?

Dan can either one of you really say that your opinions have not been polluted by church politics???

I was looking at some New converts last night- they're all on fire and in that innocent stage. THEY have not been polluted - but US?? come on

I think their problems stem w/ insisting on using the ustomized video player embedded in their page ... they should give viewers the opportunity to use Windows Media Player or their default player ...

I don't think I'm immature, I am a responsible adult, I hold down a job, I've raised a child on my own for the most part, but I refuse to "old thinking". I don't want to get stuck in a particular mind-set just because of my age, because that's how I "should" feel! I actually have thought about this subject at length and wrote a blog/rant on it! LOL! Sorry that was probably a joking question!

And I agree with the bolded part!

For me, I'm SURE that I have been polluted, made cynical, whatever by church politics, but I really do feel that it has made me grab hold of the heart of the matter (to quote Phillips, Craig & Dean) it really is all about Him. I have to really make a concerted effort not to let the "junk" get in the way of my relationship with God.
