2. Choreographed Step Dancing debuts at an endorsed event.
3. Gaddy pleads to his listeners in his last message that they too "step out of the box".
Everyone's minds are made up on the TV resolution ... as is Gaddy's ... who is stepping away ...
I don't doubt his passion is youth or that he sought to inspire and impact their lives in a memorable way when he made the executive decisions in organizing this event.
Yet, anyone can tell you ... including as Sherri stated above. This is not your Mama's UPCI. There are some mixed messages that are new to some in the fellowship. We would be remissed to think that TG did not know that controversy would rear its head after this YC.
He has played a role in organizing these events before... Dozens of ideas are tossed about in brainstorming sessions ... but often are decided against due to perceived notions of impropriety or fear of political fallout.
Gaddy has an agenda here. It's clear. As part of his legacy he has set precedent in the policy decision making process of at least the department he is involved in ... His vision for the future of the fellowship does not match those who will be voting no in September. This was Gaddy's exclamation point.

Lets say the answer is, Yes, this was TG intent... do you have a problem with that? Is it a bad thing or a good thing from your point of view?
