[Oe List ...] Respectful Dialogue

[George Holcombe]

A memory flashes back out of these last few days of emails.

We used to say:
1. Humor is better than seriousness.
2. Yes before no
3. Phariseeism more dangerous than libertinism

It's interesting that the World Council of Churches has now  
introduced consensus making as its form of decision making and that  
the United Methodist Church in its reorganization as a global church  
is looking at adapting that too at the next General Conference.

Wouldn't it be a pity if we forgot what we pushed into history along  
with others, and if what defined us is what we choose to remember  
about our past and what offends us about others.

Could it be we are being challenged to learn how to use email as a  
significant way to push us into the future?
