IF Res 4 Does NOT Pass??
 
Many Cons have stated plainly that they will leave if the Res 4 passes. I am curious to know what those that are supporting Res 4 will do if it does not pass.

Will you go ahead and start advertising anyway?
Will there be another "Resolution Run" at a future GC?
Will you leave the Org?
Will you back away and just let it go, allowing that the Org is settled in NOT having tv as a viable means of evangelizing?



and lastly..........................










Will you get rid of the TV you have ready and waiting for a passed resolution? :)

Matt, with all due respect, as someone who is not a part of the org, why do you care?

I have heard with my own ears one of the most important men from Hazelwood say that this might as well pass now, because it's just going to keep coming up until it finally does, because the top leadership of the UPC wants it to.

OF COURSE I WON'T GET RID OF MY TV....it's football season!:amen

Why shouldn't I care??

1. I have a son that is currently looking to license with the UPCI in a few years.
2. I have friends (ministry and saints) that I care about in the Org.
3. And I am on a discussion board that is very good about talking about UPC events.



These reasons are enough for me to ask the question.

I agree about the res coming up over and over. In so many ways we are all just waiting for a particular generation and it's mindset to die off.

We must stay in this wilderness until all of their carcasses become a prey. Then we can claim our inheritance.

Fair enough.

In answer to your question, I don't know that the resolution passing is the "be all and end all" cure for what ails the org. Most of us wouldn't leave over this one issue.

You know, I would hope all of those who are in the org who have T.V's would turn in their licences, and do what's right, but the reality of it is they have not done it yet. They sign when they get thier license and each year an affidavit that states they do not have a television in their home. So they need to repent and either get rid of their televisions or get out. "All liars shall have their place in the lake of fire." I don't care how good you can speak.

Nahum 09-17-2007 09:02 PM

BTW, it won't pass unless some esteemed elder who has historically opposed the issue changes his mind and speaks for it.

UltraCon 09-17-2007 09:03 PM

Even though i'm on the "right' side of this issue I still want to voice my opinion. I hope that all the liberals that have TV in thier homes get out of the UPC. All those that have already lied on their AS need to LEAVE. In fact they shouldn't even be allowed to vote. If we had leadership with a backbone they would kick those liars out of the org.
