    Agreed

    We should focus on common interests and shared
    problems rather than rights and conflicting
    positions.

    I disagree. Sure, it might make people feel better, but it is dishonest and does not stand for truth.

    We should share information openly and freely.[/QUOTE]

    Agreed.

    We should build trust and treat each other as
    equals.

    Not everyone is equal. Some are saved Christians going to heaven. Some are lost and going to Hell. You should not treat them as equals to make them feel good about going to Hell. Besides that, true diversity rejects the idea of absolute equality. I am a better trombone player than my wife is (she doesn't play). She is a better preschool teacher than I am. I know how to read and translate Hebrew. My parents don't. My dad can fix just about anything. I can't. None of us are equals.

    We should give prirority to sustaining the BB.

    Couldn't disagree more. Our priority should be preaching the Word of God and proclaiming the truth, not sustaining some worldly institution.
