1. Conclude that you have a serious problem with the organization based on personal conviction and/or policy issues.
2. Pray for direction in what to do.
3. If appropriate, turn in your card with a well-written letter explaining your actions.
4. Refrain from denigrating the organization or anyone not leaving.
5. Go about your plans with a clear conscience and the respect of your brethren.

Unfortunately, this is not how they have chosen to proceed with their actions...and I am not angry with them; just disappointed...
Thank you for this post...

Some people probably give to the Jerry Lewis telethon more for the tax write off than for Jerry's kids too, but a good purpose is still served.
My friend, with some of these guys, I cant help but be reminded of Shakespears Caesar. You know the sceen where he leaves his hand on the crown a little too long?

Not all. just some.

I think the problem is that some of these men (hopefully a very small minority) see these things in extemes. I think that in their mind when the org. chose this path (and the prior issues like video screens for magnification, videotaping services, etc) it became unworthy and not due this respect and consideration.

A much milder version of the old AMFcries that the UPC was the "harlot", etc and doomed for failure, etc, etc.

On the positive side it appears that there are quite a few highly respected men in this group who will probably not allow this type thinking to prevail.
