If a minister who has joined a fellowship that makes collective decisions through a democratic resolution process cannot accept the will of the majority ... then ... no matter where they stand ideologically .... they have no business joining such an org

Matt I have never said you have to agree with the decision made. I can, not agree with something, and still accept the will of the greater body. This can be done for the sake of unity while not compromising your personal convictions

Abortion is the example I gave before ... it's extreme but it can be any type of legislation or policy.

If you can't accept the direction ... or re-direction of the fellowship, or institution, you are part of and champion ... and would rather subvert the process by causing division, accuse others of not being holy or true to your heritage, or hypocritical,

it's best you leave.

The rules allow for changes ... some will not accept that.

Funny how the ones that are a part of the majority are being painted as the bad guys. Maybe the minority should move on, and stop causing the division because of their continual attempts to change what the majority want. I hear the ALJC allows tv. What doth hinder them?? Or would they rather cause division in the Majority?

The vote will decide who is the minority ... now.
