Like I said, in 100 years no one is going to care, and the ones who do, will remember it wrong. History, turns into legend and legend turns into myth, make your peace and move on. You will forget about the offence, and you won't have to shoot your ex-Pastor the stink eye next time you cross each other's path.

Elder EB, I have not spoken to him about it at all, but can assure you that there is no offense to make peace with, thus nothing to forgive.
He is his own man, and has been since he labored in this city at the ripe old age of 26...
Bishop didn't seek my counsel before he made his decisions. If he had, I would have advised him to wait.
But this is all a moot point...the brethren did their thing and it is done.
That being said, I am entitled to an opinion like everyone else. You posted, and I responded with my thoughts.
Trust all is well with you and your family in the frozen south. My brother lives in Spring Hill, and when he called our mom the other morning, he said he couldn't believe how cold it was.
We are looking for a heat wave here this weekend...they're predicting 36 degrees!!
