Ultra cons have many more things besides the TV issue they are unhappy about so their slow march toward starting a new organization proceeds.
While I beleive the AMC organizers when they say their intent was not to form such an org. the fact of the matter is that it has united ultra cons of every stripe (AMF, UPC, ALJC, GIB) in a way they never did before and those new relationships, I believe, have led to a new org. being more viable.
On the liberal side preachers and churches will just keep trickling away as a church becomes large enough to be self sufficient and a pastor feels that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks in leaving. For these men the control issue of restraining them from a technology that can help fulfill the great commission will be a deciding factor in some cases.

CCI the analysis is correct to an extent the AMC, the IAM Foundation for missions and now the Apostolic Compass are unitng conservatives in a way such as never before. But a new organization?????????? I seriously doubt that most have had organization up to their ears. There is no interest in it unless it would be a very few. Maybe we are returning to more of an Apostolic pattern as in the NT and leaving the trappings of organizational lives behind.
