That is a really good-point to keep in mind. Thanks Elle.

If we do not all agree with Christ, then we will never build a cohesive communtiy, either in the "real world" or here online. If we compromise our agreement with Christ, then wedges are easily driven and those communities which we do try to build simply crumble.

We have to be patient too.

This is actually the first way for people to naturally think about situations like this but it is counter productive in my opinion. Using an example of IT systems development, the idea of building a system from the ground up in one go almost never works.

Alternatively what is the plan? Is there one? There is the old adage that not planning is planning for failure. Obviously it is all a part of God's plan, not ours in the end. I revert back to my argument in the first post in this case that we are obligated to try to move forward.
