Ethics and being ethical are very important.
hmmmm...
that, of course depends on the nature of the disagreements. It may very well be "unethical" to walk away if one knows lives are being effected in a grossly negative manner.

Re: Would You Do It?

Each situation is different I agree.But we don't know the whole story on this case and the church and all of the issues involved,so it's really hard to evaluate the whole matter.

I understand where Timmy's coming from and in certain cases, yeah, if I were in his shoes I probably would let the fur fly. But in this case, Scott, you've given perfect advice. Well said.
