This is true, but honestly, can we post Newsflash and think no one is going to take issue with that? I'm not defending either side.

It's the Internet and everybody's entitled to an opinion, but this seems more than a little unfair.

If somebody did something that lacks integrity, it's a reflection on character and not on calling.

Someone just wasn't thinking that just because the forum is private that it would keep St. Mark from finding out.

I believe it would serve us best to just let this go.

Personally, if you were a former Admin & things were entrusted to you confidentially, than that confidentiality should not be broken-period!

This whole issue, the whole thing, is about religion and the stranglehold it has on people. They may or may not have wanted someone to say something. The problem is in the fact that unless a group is a cult, there should be absolute transparency to all who are part, and even outside the group. Things that they are ashamed of doing they should not do. Things they want done in secret imply some shame involved.

This is the Church, not the US government. Even in the USA, we do have freedom of speech and religion, unless you are a part of ******* or *******.

So sad, and so terribly wrong.

Some question why we cannot "reach" the unsaved, who has time for that when some are too busy biting and devouring each other.

I believe Margie hit the nail on the head about "trust".

I see very few that actually "trust" anyone these days, due to having been bitten one too many times.

And that is very sad for I think the vast majority of us who work hard to maintain that integrity only to see it torn to shred by the actions of a few.

Work has kept me at bay from being on the forums as much as I would have liked. Apparently I have missed a lot....including Mark.

All I am going to say is some people on there know others and have allowed others to go on that forum and check out things for themselves.

End of comment.

You might not be a member much longer since you aren't an Apostolic preacher or preacher's wife.
