I think the problem with the resolution wasn't with what it was trying to do but with whom it charged with doing it. It would indeed be worth looking at the selection process for Study/ Action Issues and Actions of Immediate Witness. I opposed the resolution because it seemed to supplant the Commission on Social Witness, which is charged with reviewing its own methods. I am confident that the CSW will be giving this careful thought, and anyone with ideas can write to the CSW. Likewise, anyone can go to the Nominating Committee's page and find out how to apply for the next vacancy on the CSW. I think this commission is a group of (five) very talented and hard working UUs, and I feel we owe them warm thanks even while we may suggest ideas for improvement.
Peace,
David
